Disclaimer 2: I was fortunate to meet Kaveh prior to reading this & it has certainly colored my perception.
OK, so, now for the review! This book is.... A lot. It's weird and artsy and poetic and experimental and dark. There's a lot going on, but you're never quite sure what (seriously. WHAT HAPPENED at the very end?!) or at least, you're never quite sure of Cyrus's ability to explain to the reader what is happening. I know for a fact hearing Kaveh speak about this book and the experiences leading to it gave me a very positive experience - if you ever have a chance to see him speak, take it!
