Any good? Sounds like Stephen Dixon's Frog but significantly shorter.

I did a google search and someone wrote, "While eschewing the flamboyantly anti-realistic experiments of authors such as Ronald Sukenick and Robert Coover, Dixon nevertheless refuses to propel his narratives on the energy of represented action."Dixon's writing is definitely experimental, but I would categorize it as experimental realism. How is this book anti-realistic, assuming it is? As far as I can recall, the narrative in Dixon's Frog is not told in sequential order and it often goes into scenes that "could have happened" rather than "did happen," which sounds like the description of this book.
