This is awesome... Anything else similar ? An unabashed look at the human condition type novel?

Well, it's the third book in a trilogy, but it's fine, nobody really reads them in order because they're all very different and written by different authors. The first book in the trilogy is Ulysses by James Joyce and the second is Gravity's Rainbow by Thomas Pynchon.

>ulysses

my public school education wasn't sufficient to comprehend

>gravity's rainbow

the first part of this book sucked too much to keep reading, his entire state of mind is frizzled by the V2s but there is only a paragraph or two about the supersonic shit and squid eyes in a sea of other shit I don't remember

neither had entertaining (imo) prose like IJ
