I personally did not enjoy this book. It came highly recommended at the time and I see a lot of people love it, but it was just too confusing for me. If I didn’t watch the movie, I would have had a very different idea of the story.
For me it just jumped around too much and I couldn’t follow who was narrating at any given moment. It also did nothing to stimulate me emotionally or philosophically. I thought about putting it down several times, but I try to always finish what I start.
For those of you who love this book, what do you love about it?
We had to read that in high school, and I hated it. Couldn’t keep track of who was who - too many people with similar names or literally the same name - and then we couldn’t figure out what the one character was saying most of the time with his thick northern accent, in text.
I like the Puppini Sisters cover of the song, though.
