I don't think it is really bad at all..

Take the time to search out his short fiction, which is published in several avant-garde literary journals. He writes some clever satire (ie. Mephistopholes), etc.

Gah!
Hi! This novel is riddled with typos. It's clunky and awkward. There are some tremendously good moments, though they're ride scattershot through bad terrain. I have no idea what the author was thinking when he wrote half of what's in there, and he should have revised it some more, and he should have taken some more stuff out.

I have no idea what the author was thinking when he wrote half of what's in there, and he should have revised it some more, and he should have taken some more stuff out. That said, the author meant well. Had he been less impatient he could have salvaged a novella-length gem out of this promising but unwieldy rock. If you're willing to look for the good bits there are good bits to be found. I'm glad I wrote it. I'd be happy to hear you read it. |
