Or am I just missing the historical context? I get that it is a parody, and yes parts of it were amusing. I admit, I laughed out load at the jazz band, and the scene where Seth left. And the counting was pure gold. But something about that book irritates me & I don’t know what.
How do you feel about it.

I was also highly recommended it and was left a little disappointed. I think perhaps that because it is a parody, it’s funnier and more enjoyable if you have already read the kind of books it was parodying (which I hadn’t). Plus it was written decades ago, so perhaps there are nuances that may have been understood by contemporary readers.
