Is this any good? Or is it another "heartbreaking work of staggering genius"?

finished it last night. Bloated up beyond belief, but really an interesting read. The narrative style rewards you for reading, and keeping tracks on the small connections as it all builds up. Now that I've finished I'm tempted to reread Hamlet and jump in again with everything I know now.

So pretty good, much better then a bunch of schlep that has been coming out, but my mind was necessarily blown out the way it's described.

I downloaded the Heartbreaking audiobook but it was narrated by a black guy and it bothered me so I stopped listening, is it worth reading properly.

No, I think you're pretty much smack dab in the center of the demographic.

He seems like a decent and earnest person, but he is hardly a great writer.
