>>	Anonymous Sat Apr 25 22:57:55 2015 No.6455710 >>6455618 It is not. It's worth reading, but it's not good. It will make you cringe.

>>	Anonymous Sat Apr 25 23:20:56 2015 No.6455788 >>6455754 Why is it worth reading or why will it make you cringe? The answer to both is that it documents the longings of a teenage outcast from 1968, but was written in 1961.

>>	Anonymous Sun Apr 26 03:32:42 2015 No.6456530 >>6455913 the author has a character that is a representation of him in it. Also explicit sexism.
