tilgovi's review against another edition
4.0
A surreal, first-person romp through the streets of 1920s Paris full of linguistic and metaphysical delights and fancies. I tried to read this three times before I succeeded, but it was well worth it and there are passages I will return to again and again. Readers will either find the style maddening or wonderful depending on how willingly they submit to the "vertigo of the modern".
