Well - I finished this but I have to say I'm not real sure what the point was or maybe there wasn't one? Even though the book was short, it wasn't the easiest book to read. It was hard to tell what was real and what was a dream or imagination. The novel was laced with poems and maps and drawings that were very original but it just didn't work for me. The book seemed to be very confrontational with lots of references to sex and genitals (including drawings) just for the shock value. I actually really struggled to finish it. I guess I prefer a traditional narrative form of writing. This book must have had a point, but I don't think I got it.
