/lit/ - Literature

Hey, people who like difficult, wordy, modern/postmodern lit—is this any good?

Please take a moment and determine whether you're even into this stuff to begin with before you reply. It's been getting mixed reviews on Amazon, and I suspect that's because it's just not a lot of people's bag. On the other hand, it could be a genuinely mediocre book.

Besides Wallace, postmodern lit kind of intimidates me, but I'm willing to put in the effort if the general consensus is that that effort is rewarded.

So: Anybody read it? What'd you think?

What does /lit/ think of this? Has anyone read it?
