Just finished it and really enjoyed the prose and story. The most emotion that I ever felt while reading and I will hopefully learn from Harry’s mistakes about not taking chances on love and always finding a reason to not enjoy life. What did you guys think of it?

Wow, this is bad. How did he go from writing Siddhartha to this? It reads like a chimera or Melville and Dickens, combining the worst aspects of both. Meandering, philosophical sentences without the beautiful prose and backdrop of Melville, and the density of Dickens without the likeable characters and plot.

Is anything else by him worth reading? Siddhartha was great and actually inspired me to read The Upanishads and The Bhagavad Gita.

>Manic pixie girl barf

Read Demian instead. Far superior and less vomit inducing.

Oh yeah and to the anon that shilled me this piece of shit, I will find you and you will give me back my 20 dollars.
