I just finished "A Heartbreaking Work of Staggering
Genius." I was amazed. I know I need to be careful,
but there were times when the "experience" of reading
AHWOSG was much like the experience of reading "On the
Road." The point wasn't the story or the characters
or anything I might carry away from it, as much as it
was the act of reading it. Very wierd. Very
subjective.
A friend or two commented on the "postmodern book" I
was reading, but the fact is that it was at the same
time a bit postmodern and very critical of
postmodernism.
I recommend it.
Thanks for your suggestions.
