It made me have a very uncomfortable dream adaptation of a memory from my childhood last night and gave me newfound insights into that memory (if I choose to believe them). The prose is, due to the subject of the book, painfully haunting. I'm only 100 pages in and I've already gone back to reread certain sections a number of times.

One thing I'm worried about: Since I'm so young, will I be able to fully enjoy the later volumes? Will it not be a search for lost time but moreso an exploration of things to come?
