The elephant in the room sticks out like a sore thumb, to mix metaphors.
Other than that, there wasn't much to say. I'm not a short story or novella person, but the pace was pretty decent and the arc believable for the amount of pages. It reminds me very much of di Lampedusa's The Leopard. Basically, if you liked Heart of Darkness and slow, winding, 19th century European books about a white man having a midlife crisis, this one's for you! Just keep a garbage can nearby for the vomiting...
