I gather that you're not liking this. I think the interest is intellectual, like a crossword puzzle, Pirandello or an Escher print.

But I know how you feel: I can't stand Henry James because of his interminable and ambiguous sentences—some writers you just can't get in harmony with.

Exactly.I am struggling hard with this book,l always have a feeling l am not intelligent enough to understand it,which is quite frustrating.On the contrary,l love Escher's prints,l have been to two exhibitions recently and find him fascinating.And yes,l have the same difficulty with Henry James unfortunately.His books are just too difficult for me.
