This is the most late 90s male postmodern male thing I have ever read. If that’s something you can enjoy, you will love this. But if you don’t like that aesthetic then you aren’t going to like 700+ densely tangled pages of it.

I will admit while I did enjoy it there was a slow build up but it does happen decently quick. The more mysterious parts of the book start to shine and you quickly realize that the book itself is a unreliable narrator.
