Havent read this since high school. Glad I re-read it. It definitely is on of my favorites. Great observation of high society, intrigue and romance that may have been delusional.

I read this because it inspired 'Blade Runner' - one of my favorite Ridley Scott films. The book was a nice read. The film left out a lot, which I think was best.

The story is interesting: magicians, fortune tellers. contortionists, illusionists. The setting and descriptions are even more intriguing. If it was a movie or live theatre, it would be incredibly visionary. A bit long, but worth it.
