I'm 50 pages in now. I find that I can only read a few pages at a time. It's not the quality of the prose, which is very readable, and shines in places. It's just that there is so much going on this book. It's like eating a complex dish; I don't want to miss a lot of the flavours by eating it in big gulps.
