I'm enjoying the story (as much such a story can be enjoyed) and the *idea* of the surreality of the shifting landscapes and perspectives, but I rather *hate* the writing style. It's 90% dialogue, presented in a way that makes it difficult to know who is speaking, and it makes what should be an interesting story dull. I know this is an important book, so I feel like an uncultured swine for feeling thus.
