Who has read this? I loved it. I can see how the "sloppy" prose could put people here off but I think it was done with precision and expert intention. The guy had been writing for decades when he published this.

I forgot about this. I loved both solitude and death fortold.

I don't even like the guy that much, but if he has one merit it is his prose.

Can someone make a meme to counter all the "translation" posters that have invaded /lit/?

the translation is just as good as the original because you're translating words into your brain whenever you read anyway so if you reject that then nothing can be good

meh it was ok, way too long. the love as sickness metaphor did not need 350 pages to hammer in ad nauseum.
