Oh well, this wasn't for me. I might not have gotten the point.
Anyway. Two stars because the thing I *did* like was the no-pause narration style. Language: good. Content: meh... don't know

A story about two lovers, young and old, entwined in a squabble triggered by rage.
The erotic passion between both lovers led to serenity (view of the nature in the farmlands), afterwards, an abrupt superficial abnormality the farm led to an outburst of vitriolic rage from the old man. His witty lover being disgusted by his irrational rage rebuked him, but he is not a man to be rebuked; he is cynical, misanthropic and narcissistic, enveloped by the void of a terrible past which he clouds with his ego. The scathing insults and squabbles which ensued between both lovers created a contrast and revealed a seemingly complex, yet tediously entertaining exchange; class difference, anarchy vs order, the dynamics of domination etc.
It is a fairly complex read, seamless and without pauses or full stops, with, of course, entertaining insults.
