Status Updates From The Man Without Qualities

Pattern of this book: dozens of pages of tedious oblique tortuous German prose interrupted by a great idea followed by yet more dozens of tedious oblique tortuous prose. Add to that the parallel campaign plot is still dull as hell. Trudging through this reading desert occasionally coming across a water source of ideas to drink a quick gulp before continuing my journey through this awful book. Where is the greatness?!

a complex, complicated novel of ideas which I feel the majority of the ideas go right over my head. Migraine inducing at times. It doesn't help that the parallel campaign plotline is dull as all hell so far. I'm hoping once the characters with different beliefs interact with each other it will get more interesting. Going to be patient.
