I have no words. One of the best books I’ve ever read.

Nice ending. Other than that, it was at least 200 pages too long.

elifg2's review against another edition

I’m sure this book is really great once you read the whole thing, I mean just from half of the book I did find the plot to be interesting and thought provoking. However, the only issue I find in here is the unnecessary dragging of speech that just makes it very annoying to read. I mean there was just a 15 page speech about a guy and being an alcoholic that could’ve much easily been less.

As a result, I will not be rating this book as not to do it injustice because I do think the underlying meaning is great and it is a classic but, I don’t think the writing style can survive the 21st century...
