Did you finish it? How was it?
it's a complex tragic satire on creative expression, which can sell itself down the river once it tragically manipulates it's own inspiration.
I will finish it tonight or tomorrow. So far it is among the most ingenious and enjoyable novels I have ever read. I'll let you know if he succeeds in pulling it all together at the end.
So . . . how was it?????

books are serious things and reading a good book is a blessing...this book is um...its about music and 'pretend people' whose story is told in the first person's past...yep and some kind of issue with an opera and how the author is a great lyricist with a talent for using people and how folk music is the holy grail(the only thing that made sense)its very academic and I wish there were Cliff Notes for some of the musical references and how they clairify the plot.i have never read such a difficult book since Hermann Melville's.....read it and post what you think.
