Stories ended at unexpected points. A mass jumble of everything and nothing, with none of the ideas well thought out.

Enjoyed the writing and the stories (pp. 1-73), wish there was more; whimsical character names.

Flew through my head (did not understand the need for it):
notes on macbeth - pp. 75-94
postmodern deconstruction madhouse II - pp. 95-130

An interesting if preachy mixture of stories and textual analysis.
With the stories they are closer to character studies than narratives often abruptly ending.
As for the indepth of Macbeth it is quite interesting but I remain uncertain for the reason why it is included in this book.
At one point the writer comments his notes that every other sentence might contain a reference. He does not see a way around this. This is a shame as there are some good moments but this need to show knowledge even in the narration made this book harder to read.
(For example a long analysis of two movies that are not included in the final text. The research and opinions were formed and must be shown).
I must also confess that I was unable to finish (at the time of the review) when the author copy and pasted a Wikipedia article that he had written.
