A very special book! I don't care for the classic "nobody thinks like this"-argument, it's disingenuous and argumentative. I think the format works, and the stream of consciousness-style storytelling was very compelling to me. It did take me a hot minute to finish, but sometimes literature sticks with your for a longer time and that's great value for money, if you think about it.
