Not going to write too much about this as I'm in the process of doing a presentation on it, but really was impressed with how utterly singular this felt - cannot imagine the breadth of imagination it must take to create such a boldly grotesque novel. Don't love the writing style (a little overly descriptive and lacking in emotion at times for me) but really did feel the tragedy of the novel, and even if it took me a few essays and articles to untangle exactly what I thought it was doing, once I figured that out I really liked it.
