Would have been higher if I hadn't had to slog through 900 pages waiting for something to grab me. Not a good head for themes, so I'm sure I missed what everyone else saw. I guess the fact that nothing is resolved in any of the stories is a theme? Maybe the fact that everytime a male, and a few females, gets angry they start yelling about faggots, regardless of nationality, age, socioeconomic level, etc.?

I cannot believe that after 893 pages I wanted to start over immediately to piece together all of the details. I can't do 5 stars, because some parts really were a struggle and I almost gave up, but by the last 50 pages I was hooked again!
