Dancing About Architecture

I really liked about 80% of this book ... the middle 80%. The first 10% made it really tough to get into because it just wasn't that good. I've heard he was maybe parodying one of the characters in the story -- if so, too meta for me. The last 10% just kind of fizzled out for me. I feel like I should have gotten something more out of it, but the story just kind of wound down without a satisfactory resolution. Maybe that's the point, I don't know, but I don't like feeling like I'm missing out! Reader problem instead of an author problem perhaps?

But the middle is some fantastic fiction. Great style, cutting cristicism of pomo (that's p-o-m-o, not p-o-r-n-o) existence, and probably the best depiction of what must be going through an Alzheimer sufferer's mind that I've ever read. I probably need to find some literary criticisms out there to piece together what I missed out on, because it really was a fun read.
