scripturizzy 's review for:
Speak, Memory
by Vladimir Nabokov
challenging
informative
reflective
slow-paced
Did I "Finish" this book... barely. Did I skim half and then not read half because it's for class and was incomprehensible... yeah. I enjoyed the writing a lot and wish I had more time to get into it but unfortunately midterms make me wanna kill myself right now. I think the (forgive my hypocrisy in this one, it's ironic I'm complaining about this i know) flowy, overly verbose sentence structure got old in some places faster than others. There are times where the descriptions and flow into consciousness are really beautiful and serve as excellent mechanisms for unboxing memory and childhood and the pains of the universe- but not when detailing one's entire family tree. So all in all I should really read this but I doubt I will.
