Haha! I finally got around to this one about a year ago. NGL, it was a total slog. I managed to finish it, and I’m glad I did, but I don’t think I’ll be revisiting anytime soon.
Yeah, it is dense and boring (as well as torturous) by design. When I finish, maybe I read bits and pieces, but not the whole thing. Still, it is an experience.

Yes, “an experience” describes it perfectly. It manages to evoke a lot of complex emotions. Humor, tension, elation, boredom, disgust, horror…
