I know it's a classic etc
But the story per se doesn't sound very attractive to me. Maybe because it's a comedy and I'm more used to reading dramas.
Anyway, I'd really appreciate if some of you would convince me to read it, since I got it for Christmas.
it's a revolt against reality
It's considered by many (myself included) to be the best book of all time. Read the first couple of chapters, and you will see how funny it is. This is possibly the least dry "classic" you can read.
OP do you like fun?
You could try reading it. At least the Penguin edition I read had nice little chunks you could read in like five minutes. I wouldnt start from the prologue tho bc you're just sampling.
Inb4 Penguin Edition father forgive me for i have sinned
Putnam, Grossman, Shelton or Ormsby?
