His books are too long and intimidating.

sot weed factor is great, highly recommended if you liked don quixote and or mason&dixon

he is a good writer he just, to me, has very little long-term appeal. his novels are too long, i agree, and his ideas are too precise, too cold and unmoving, he pulls off the typical postmodernist wankery without a hint of postmodernism' life or danger, no new sincerity preaching
it's just really hyperspecifci literary experiments played out like a self aware comedy of stuffy professor humor
the guy is like a borges without any of the brevity, meets ned flanders

I don't understand how this guy found time to be a novelist, a critic, and a theologian all at once
