This was surprisingly interesting. There are many things going against it: the whole book is pretty much 200 pages of old man complaining about everything (and I do mean everything), with not a single paragraph break in the book. However, if you stick around mr Reger, he turns out to be an interesting human being after all, with weaknesses and vulnerabilities. The book is subtitled a comedy, but it's also quite tragic.
