Title: What was the point?
Review: This book was entirely divorced from anything I could relate to. It just seemed not surreal enough to be "trippy" and too unreal for me to get involved in the story.Was the self-mutuilation of the Ellen Jamesians symbolic? What was that supposed to be I had no idea. All of the relations described in the book seemed contrived and just plain weird.Only for very few of the characters did I even feel a slight interest in, but they tended only to be tangential to the story.All in all this book is an absurdist account of the gender wars. It is not so absurd to be entertaining, but too absurd to be involving.My motivation for purchasing this book was because so many reviewers thought that this book was hillarious. Well, if this was hillarious, how would you describe Douglas Adams? This book was about as funny as gangrene.
