Did anyone else find the book repetitive?

More specifically - The plot seemed boring and tbqh hardly existent and the didacticism fairly repetitive and mostly uninteresting after a while

Intentional literary technique used to convey the monotony and stasis he feels trapped in.

It's monotone because the editors threw together all the notes they found.
Could've been much improved by kicking out 200 pages

The dude on the cover isn't throwing his hands up in anguish. He's reaching to catch a ball that has been tossed to him. You can see it behind his right hand.

maybe a little, but it's better to regard it as meditative almost, revisiting ideas with a hollow monotony that digs deeper and deeper into the meaning of the work

that's a poor excuse that befits the ilk of infinite jest, but a proper work of dreary monotone would find a way to achieve this, while still being an intriguing read.

He died in the 30's and Portugal, my country, pays so much attention to its writers that someone only bothered to gather his notes and publish it fifty years later.
