did i like it? yes, very much. but i like kafka. so i understand why people don't like this, cause i think you do have to be a kafka fan in some capacity to like it. i'm mostly a fan of the style and what kafka has to say in general, and i even liked this more than the metamorphosis. i suppose it was more my thing thematically.

I struggled to get into this book. The book itself is will written, but just not for me.

I found it disconcerting while not particularly enjoyable or worthwhile. The writing style was unique to anything I had ever read, but frustrating, though funny and engaging
