Just like being there. As a former metal head, I should know.

Man, I keep reading these things cause I hear number four is pretty f'd up in an entertaining way, but after this one I'm beginning to wonder if it's possible for Herbert to write an entertaining book. Well, won't that be egg on my face... Also: You know how when you read any given fiction, no matter the quality, you manage to find one character who you like/can emphasize with/who you're sort of rooting for to not get totally screwed over by whatever's happening. Man, not the Dune books. I came to realize in reading this one that if I turned a page and it said "And then a giant Sandworm ate everyone, everywhere, everywhen because time is a singular point that human perception must move beyond in order to assume the greater nonassumption of perpetual Bene Gesserit Golden Path fear is the mindkiller blah blah blah the end" I really wouldn't have cared at all and instead felt minor relief, if also some disappointment that the f'd up events of the fourth book no longer existed and I'd wasted my time.

This was a super interesting and readable piece of historical fiction. It provided a lot of insight into the lives behind Vincent - his brother (Teo) and Teo's wife (Johanna), who is really to be thanked for bringing his work to the public eye and for the publishing of the letters between the two brothers. Another great story about the "woman behind the man". Read it in a weekend.

After having unsuccessfully tried to read The Loved Ones, I wasn't sure how this Waugh would sit with me. But there's a reason this is considered his best work. His use of metaphor alone won me over. His characterization of university (see excerpt below) in the first half of the book resonated with me. His treatment of purposeless upperclass young Englishmen between the Wars was much more eloquent than Messud's treatment of purposeless upperclass young Americans post 9/11 in Emporer's Children. If you give this a try, don't linger with the prologue: get on with it, and you'll be rewarded. This one goes out to all of my college friends: Looking back, now, after twenty years, there is little I would have left undone or done otherwise.... I could tell [my cousin] that all the wickedness of that time was like the spirit they mix with the pure grape of the Douro, heady stuff full of dark ingredients; it at once enriched and retarded the whole process of adolescence as the spirit checks the fermentation of the wine, renders it undrinkable, so that it must lie in the dark, year in, year out, until it is brought up at last fit for the table. I could tell him, too, that to know and love one other human being is the root of all wisdom. But I felt no need for these sophistries.... I had my secret and sure defence, like a talisman worn in the bosom, felt for in the moment of danger, found and firmly grasped.

A bit sappy, as you might imagine from the Dalai Lama. But there are some thought-provoking ideas and it's refreshing to hear genuinely compassionate words in these hard times.

OK. I tried. I really tried to like this book, and I just didn't. The author got me right at the beginning when she said something about if "it's own" or "apple's: $1.00" doesn't bother you, quit reading. I thought it would be right up my alley. Instead I found it to be way too broad to be useful as a reference book; it would not be handy to keep around the computer to look up concepts as it's interspersed with anecdotal information. On the other hand, it's not funny enough to be a pure book of humor and I found the author to be just a bit arrogant.

Surpringly science fiction-y, causing the reader to keep trying to figure out when we were, why we were, how we were... I kept waiting for my "ah ha!" moment, and when it arrived, I did not feel satisfied. But it did keep with the feel of the book and the situation of the characters.

I almost gave this book 3 stars. 2.5 would be the ideal rating. What I didn’t like about this book was the writing style. It just didn’t speak to me. From a dispassionate standpoint I could see that the writing was skillful, but I still didn’t enjoy it. What I did like about this book was that it was about a failed and disappointed life. I enjoy reading about people whose lives didn’t turn out the way they wanted them to. I think it’s truer than an uplifting story. It’s possible that this book went over my head, or it may have been too depressing, even for me. Even though I didn’t like this book I still plan to give LIpsyte’s longer novel The Ask a try “… I’ve been to the edge of the abyss on more than one unsavory occasion. The view down is darkly steep and scary, a chilling reminder that there is, in fact, an abyss. The wise turn tail, fly home, buy nachos, lime-infused. I count myself among the wise.” P.3 “If I’ve learned anything it’s that you must bide your time until your time comes, knowing full well, of course, your time may never come. That’s the bitch about biding it.” P. 61
