Just finished this, picked it up to fill the Moby Dick shaped hole in my heart:
Meticulously researched and full of fascinating stuff but i thought it was clumsily written and kind of all over the place. Interesting and occasionally haunting though.
Someone lent me that Murukami "What i wank about when i'm wanking on about wanking" book and predictably i hated it.
Just had a haul in Waterstones. Continuing the theme of self-improvement though digestion of Penguin Classics I should have read years ago but just plain haven't, i' just picked up:
Frankenstein
A Poe anthology
and Crime and Punishment
I shall report back with findings in quite a long time.
