It seems to me to have moments of sheer brilliance surrounded by lots of what seems like at times to be aimless rambling. That may be a matter of style and culture; for this Western reader it appears to be an acquired taste. Some of it is laugh out loud funny, some of it is thought-provoking, and some of it is very courageous in the way it openly asks questions that some people appear to feel are off-limits. It's certainly not the easiest book in the world to read.
