You Dreamed of Empires by Álvaro Enrigue

DNF the audiobook. Reading the reviews on here, I see a lot of us did not enjoy the narrator, and I strongly agree. There are also so many characters with long names that it was difficult keeping track of everyone while listening. Maybe would try again with a hard copy, but probably not.
Apparently, this book is funny, but I did not find it so. (Maybe I didn't read far enough? But IMHO if a book is billed as funny, there should be some humor in the first third of it.) Mostly, I found it violent and dark.
