I loved this book. The process of seeing Emil Sinclair Milf Hunter grow and learn alongside his many religious and personal crises was kinda awesome. I loved how it handled the epicurean paradox and though its a short book it contains a lot of interesting thoughts. Also the subtle cultural legacy of this book  is astounding (e.g utena and limbus, but probably many european media as well)
