Andrew is on page 192 of 272

Pages 16 to about 160 i think are some of the best, most savagely brilliant, astonishingly insightful, meticolously observed prose I've read on the emergent yuppie middle class (still in incohate form in 75) and the latent tendencies for affulent capitalist societies to degenerate into fascism. Actually astonishing how prescient it is. The last 50 pgs now seem to drag terribly. Its momentum has just vanished

The way this book is written is like, beyond my comprehension. Every sentence is a struggle and feels pretentious. However because I know this book is less than 200 pages I am determined to finish it.
