Truly bizarre.  It's presented as though the main character is a reliable narrator who is explaining his stream of consciousness which is a descent into madness as if it were a perfectly logical series of events.

What's the point of this book , huh? Telling an existentialism in literature using a misogynistic, abusive, manipulative creep that obsessed over a woman he barely knows? Do you expect me to sympathize with this weirdo mc victimized himself when in fact he's the perpetrator? You'll catch me dead first. He's not an existensialist, he's freaking stupid and mad. The only good thing about this book is that it is short. Because readers do not deserved prolonged misery reading this story. Worst book I've ever read in my life.
