I love the man's writing style and narrative voice, even as I hated the ending of "The Day of the Locust." In any case, this really is one of those classics of the realm of literature, even as it is not necessarily the easiest or most purely entertaining reading. Still, the characters and story are finely and deeply crafted, and it is definitely well worth the time taken reading it.
