The Kindly Ones by Jonathan Littell
1.0
Nazi De Sade. if you like nazis and rambling prose about NOTHING... this may be right up yer ally.
theres also a billion characters we start to learn uninteresting things about, then they're gone the next paragraph and clearly never were important. but I can tell you about some dumb useless to-the-story stuff about them, in rambling prose! lol.
bonus points if yer into poop and incest and fantasizing about being transgendered so you can be treated like a prostitute by nazi officers. hey, you do you boo... im fine with people doing whatever, but when its there just to be shocking and ridiculous to cover up the fact that nothing interesting has happened in a billion pages... like "oops... been rambly-prosey too much... should toss in some poop/incest/transgender fantasy nazi sex to spice things up!" then no, im not down for it.
this book is 95% prose. prose about a fly that landed on yer knuckle, prose about the way the flys guts looked when you squished it with yer hand. prose about how the guts made you feel when you inspected then closely and how they made you think of something totally boring, uninteresting, and totally irrelevant to anything... I swear this author got paid by the word and decided to take full advantage of that by making every single tiny thing be stretched out into a massive blob of word vomit.
yup... DNF'D!
