"It’s not entirely fair to judge a book before it’s over, but the dialogue — which is often a marvel in The Sun Also Rises is not working for me here. I get that the repetition and banality are part of the design. Still, it’s rather diluted compared to the often funny and revealing TSAR conversations. (See?: “rather.” He’s got me using Hemingway dictionary.)" 18 hours, 50 min ago
