This is an incredibly thought provoking book. Simultaneously bizarre and mundane. If you want plot, this isn't it, but if you are philosophically inclined, you'll more than get your money's worth. 

(I will say one of the stories was completely unreadable for me as someone with sensory sensitivities.)
