This tome is geared for the sophisticated intelligentsia....the type that is adept at derision, master of disdain, mockery and ridicule...usually I give a book 100 pages but this vapid narrative of some meaningless underling of a diabolical narcissist is going to be a challenge. It is similar to being promised a gourmet meal and being served swill and offal...

came back to this like a dog comes back to his vomit...could not get any further as my eyes glazed over and my yawning became bothersome...oh the humanity...

As mentioned above, I usually I give a book 100 pages to see if it will add something worthwhile. Alas the author paints a picture of a world I am not familiar with....a world berift of light and warmth. This is not worth the time and effort. It is the rare book categorized as 'unwilling to finish'.
