What a journey. A challenging read of you're not a fan of ambiguity. A great read if you're a fan of philosophy, speculative fiction, and/or just plain weird stuff. Very narratively different but tonally similar to the movie. If you liked the movie, you'll probably enjoy the book, though it's essentially a different story entirely. The book, like the movie, is something to meditate on.
