I can understand that. For me, I guess I was taken by the psychological aspects of the story. I missed some of the ideas that issybird brought up, but she always has very astute observations while I'm often mired in the literal.

I wouldn't necessarily rush out and read everything that Zweig has written based on this, but it made for an interesting diversion.
