I'm a chapter into this.

Does it get better? Is it just pretentious garbage? What's the point of the writing style? Am I just not patrician enough to understand? I mean, I don't spend my free time annotating Dostoyevsky or shit like that, but I'm a smart enough cookie to wrap my head around most of the freaky shit you nerds read.

That said, this right here just fucking baffles me. What's the general opinion of it on /lit/? Is there a particular way I should read this?

It might help to be familiar with John Dos Passos' USA Trilogy (42nd Parallel, 1919, Big Money), which Brunner lifts some stylistic ideas from.

It's not super deep, just has a slow start. It's gets more interesting later on, and faster.

This book is awesome. I wish /lit/ talked about it more.
