Maybe I’d feel differently if I had read this when it first came out. I’m sure I would have. Because it hits a younger, indecisive chord. But to read about a man who acts like a child and treats women like objects and then finally grows up, kinda, just isn’t something I’m interested in. The writing wasn’t spectacular or poetic. It was plain and hesitant.
