I struggled with the writing at times, and I'm not sure why. At the same time, there were many paragraphs that delved the depths of the human psyche in ways that are timeless and evocative. This book leaves the reader with much to think about.

I like how weird this book is. It’s certainly interesting to analyze. The brotherhood arc did feel like it dragged a bit though.

a great American novel if there ever was one. A man shares his experience and conflict in deciding how to participate in society, specifically a society that would prefer he didn’t exist.
a bit tedious at times, but filled with violent fun. a true American classic.
