Books are and will always be my refuge from reality. The idea that therein lies within the pages of even the most dilapidated book a power to conjure universes you hardly imagined is a wonderful feeling.
How is this a classic? or even a meaningful book? this was so boring I could hear my hair grow. I had bought this book after all the praise the wannabe's in my health club circle chirped and praised about. By God! did I feel bored or what! depressing and I am sure a very meaningless book massaged into a classic by the hippie crowd. Phish!
