WOW, the misogyny! This would never have been published as is today, or it if were it wouldn't be nearly as popular. It's dripping with sexism and blames women for all of his actions. Also, with self-importance and self-aggrandizing. He likes to toot his own horn A LOT. It was interesting and kept you engaged when you weren't cringing and/or rolling your eyes,  but you have to take everything he wrote with a giant spoon of salt.
