Hey everybody, first time posting to this book club so please tell me if I'm doing anything wrong!
I finished the novel last week, and I'm not too sure how I felt about it either. I certainly enjoyed it more than not, but something seemed lacking from a narrative standpoint, but then again when I would take a step back I would realize that the lack of meaningful development in the reunion of all these rather archetypal literary/intellectual posers contributed to the absurdity of it all. But still, it bothered me and made it less of an enjoyable read, and I found myself refreshed when proper narrative appeared within the stories about Crome's history. I guess conflicted is how it all made me feel, perhaps others felt the same.
