Why does /lit/ like this book so much, considering that it was incredibly influential to the modern YA novel? You could even call it a precursor.

John Green raves about how it's one of his biggest influences.

Its just a good story. I dont know what you want from a book but it's just a good fucking story filled with interesting questions about modern life, sarcasm, self deprecation, drugs, trivia, wild imaginations, high jinks, complexity, deep characters, slapstick comedy, alienation, and emotion. Yea its long winded and indulgent but thats the fun of it. Books like infinite jest are the reasons I read, to tell a good story.
