I've heard people, when flipping through my copy that though a week old is already worn and a bit tattered (no copy of this book, once owned, should be new looking), complain that it's just a waste of paper.
















It's not.























It all has a meaning to the book. To the experience. To the brilliance.

No words I can really say can really convey how great this book is.

And maybe something a little less interesting than reading the book is watching someone read the book. You often have to turn it upside down, on it's side, open it like a Playboy centerfold, and do all other sorts of stuff to read.

It's worth it though.

This book blew my mind.

It can't get out of mind.














I don't want it to leave.

I've almost written twenty pages for this review but still probably haven't said enough to demonstate the genius between these covers. There are so many things that this book contains, clues about other things, unravelling a labirynth inside our heads. The book is the labirynth.

So go out. Pick up a copy! It may take some time to read or you may just fly through it, images images images in your head, you can't get out you can't get out. It's not disappointing.

Oh, and read the appendices too. They are apart of the book, the main story, not an addition (like Lord of the Rings). They may help clear things up or they may make them worse. It depends on the person.







It doesn't matter.










Read the book.










Live the house.

I like the style, Pulp. And yes - I peeked into the book already and several times was on the edge of buying it. Maybe I will, at last.
