I read it in one sitting, it was incredibly good to read - especially after inching my way through Moby Dick. It's very dark, very bittersweet, filled with moments of love, tension and genuine madness. I loved it from cover to cover. A story with precious little dialogue compared to most books, with an inner monologue that descends to despair in a scarily human way.
