Seven-half stars and a need to chew, digest, and expel from my system.
Note to self: read it again x years from now, because it will undoubtedly be a different book.

Sparse language ripe with imagery. The devastation seeps from every word.

Harrowing imagery, at times familiar. I'm constantly chasing a bleak picture of WWII as good as Gravity's Rainbow or The Tin Drum. Coincidentally this novel inspired Pynchon to write GR. An early postmodern novel, overall enjoyable, excellent atmospheric writing.
