This book is definitely not the big behemoth that many people put it up to be. But I can't argue against the fact that it is such a pure and raw showcase of emotions and character that I have ever read in a book. They use literally next to nothing in terms setting or plot devices etc. But its just a bare bones story.  And I think it's just one of those books where I have no notes.

Men have to do what men have to do?

(I read an edition with notes, which was quite helpful and let me getting more out of this story than expected.)
