En helt underbar roman med rätt mängd obehagligheter.
Det tog mig lång tid att läsa dock just för att jag då och då tvingades lägga ifrån mig romanen och pausa just för att vissa delar kändes mer jobbiga än andra (ur ett "nu-är-det-obehagligt-igen"-vis!).
Rekommenderar denna till alla som gillar smått bisarra böcker och som klarar av en verklighetsflykt med bitter eftersmak!
