I thought this was a lovely book! I've spent time as an existentialist (Camus asserted that he was not existentialist, but many others claim that he is) and a nihilist and an absurdist. I think that means that nothing in this book was shocking or even depressing to me. Instead, I read these modernist prose like a fresh breath after all the musty (and adored!) classics and period fiction I've been into. While reading, I was reminded of Saul Bellow and Raymond Chandler. And I love Raymond Chandler.
