I'm sorry, what??? I wish the pace question had an optionof 'it's complicated.' The fast stuff is closer to the beginning, the weird stuff throughout, but definitely in the end, where several storylines simply don't resolve or even hint at resolving. I feel like I entered an art gallery where you're supposed to 'get' the pieces of art, but really, all you can see are blank canvasses or dead bananas taped to the wall. But somehow not getting it is my own fault and the most pretentious ones completely get it. In the end I found myself reading just to be done, while grasping for some understanding of why the tone shifted so drastically. And left, finally, feeling quite disturbed.
Definitely not my book.
Definitely not my book.
