no because this really accomplished the goal of making me feel stupid and frustrate me and nothing more... it's so conceptual and the prose so chaotic, so all over the place and so strongly character focused it was almost impossible to keep up with it. 

it's insanely abstract, every character is unlikeable (some of them morally inept), every chapter so frustrating and no character OR plot development whatsoever. what was the point? WHAT WAS THE POINTTT
