Listened to an audiobook so definitely missed out on some of the beauty of the prose. I can understand why many people loved this book, with it's philosophical explorations and the coming of age themes. It was a bit difficult and honestly boring to get through at certain points for me, and I feel like I'd have to re-read to really understand, but I don't really have any wish to at this point. Just not for me.
