Continuing with the Book 2, I caught myself at a sole interest, which I feel towards it's content: purely anthropological and sociological one. I am curious how do they live out there, in Scandinavia; how this schizoid guy manages his life; where his struggle leads and will it all get more vitalist by the end?
The author weaves a catchy story though it gets impossible when he starts to philosophise, especially about Dostoyevsky and Russian nihilism. Sometimes his problems are interesting, sometimes utterly boring. Hemanages to balance all ups and downs so that the reader stertches out his/her hand to buy the Book 3.
I am a big fan of an autobiography as a genre, especially those on the "passion for life" side, like Henry Miller. They are inspiring. This one, on the other hand, shows the other side of the coin: how is it to live and unlike your life? Can it be an inspiration? I see some good concept in the series: it is such a change after all those books, in which a hero struggles with the world, loving this whole process of life's pleasures and pains.

UPD i've just spent the last money i had on my account to buy a sequel by the author i've just critised and whom i've given 3 out of 5...maybe he's not that bad, after all. taking into account all those ideas about the fiction of reality and the reality of fiction.... my mind even suppressed the urgent need for that cash in the next few days so that it could get to that book three, ohmy.
