The Midwestern sports setting—especially the bleakness of winter on a campus, the single-mindedness that kind of environment can create—is so accurate it’s hurtful. I loved this book because it gives you an utterly unique reading experience, but it is without a doubt the weirdest book I’ve ever read. Gave me strange dreams. Will not recommend it to everyone, but will fervently recommend it to certain people, if that makes sense.
