Title: Utter Filth
Review: Toole crafted a train wreck of a book. Ignatius is a character that you love to hate. He is disgusting, rude, and conceded. Thank goodness there are mutliple plotlines and other characters. I say that it is a train wreck because you can not tear your eyes from it regardless of how disgusting Ignatius gets. You just have to sit back and wait for the other shoe to drop and Ignatius to get what is coming to him. Most of the other characters are pretty good, but Ignatius is the protagonits of the book so all plotlines eventually lead back to him. The book has a final twist at the ending that will leave the reader a bit frustrated. This book is definately worth reading, and it did win a pulitzer. It is a fairly quick read and is recommended for college age and above.
