I'm struggling with a lot of it to be honest, I'm only like a third way through. There's fantastic parts, but it's steeped under a lot of cryptic and sometimes down-right nonsensical writing.

I understand Jerusalem might be an attempted by Moore to solidify his Magician's reputation, as it really does read like a Tome. I respect him at least for attempting such a thing in 2016's England.
