Jeff Elder’s Reviews > Dhalgren > Status Update

I don't remember ever wanting so badly to be finished with a book.

So many mysteries in Bellona, the vast majority of which I am starting to doubt will ever really be illuminated, solved, or explained in any traditional sense I might on some level wish for. At this point, a bit more than half way through, I am finding Dhalgren both discouraging and compelling in substantial measures. Last night's reading was a lengthy sex scene at the scorpions' lair. Not sure what it all means.
