I feel like I need to reread this a couple more times with a bit more preparation because I felt like a lot of the historical context was lost on me. Nonetheless Harbart felt like a true fever dream, and I definitely enjoyed reading it.

This is one of those books that give you an acute look into a certain place and time and culture. This book was dark and funny and odd. I feel like a lot of the historical context was lost on me, but nonetheless Harbart had me engrossed.
