I agree with the dissenter.

As for reading 1 book a year, you clearly have a higher tolerance for pain than I do. I can read about 5 pages of Roth in a lifetime. The only hope he has of my completing any book he has ever written is that I am constantly reincarnated with his book in hand. Perhaps over dozens of reincarnations I'll get through 1 of his books.
