I wanted so badly to like this book and for the first 70 or so pages I did. After the story takes a turn and enters a different timeline, I became completely lost. I don't mind complex stories or many characters but at one point I literally had no idea what was going on and I felt like I was just swimming in words with no meaning.

I think someone who likes Finnegan's Wake or maybe something really strange and, perhaps, Kafka-esque might enjoy this. Unfortunately, I just could not continue. In the end, it just wasn't for me.
