Frazen can write or speak for hours and I would only get more interested.
It's been such a long time since I read a writing style as great as this, the flow of the words, the displaying of events, I mean why did I care to know and did not get bored with a prison system or a defunct mail system. I did not read but devoured this book.
I wholeheartedly respect his sincerity, his awareness of himself and how even the things he criticised he maintained that he was a user as well.
His essay which he mentions as a part of in the beginning but the longer version is at the end was stupendous. I seriously have been waiting for a treatment of readers and writers this well done for a long time, he displayed what I thought and felt in words I couldn't place myself.
Many things I loved and are not coming to mind, but seriously I want to reread every work Frazen has ever done.
the detail in his research and the writing style i repeat have a flow like no other!!
