I enjoyed it quite a bit, but I wasn't really blown away or anything. Funny thing is: I remember the punctuation being pretty sparse in general, but I don't think I really noticed there weren't any quotation marks. I had to go back and check when you mentioned it. But in that book's defense, there wasn't much of the narrative that took place outside of Hig's par-boiled brain anyway--much of it was a running monologue with himself. So even if Heller had decided to use traditional quotation marks, there still probably wouldn't have been a hell of a lot of them.
