This book is responsible for my having briefly had slightly more enthusiasm for The Cure than I would otherwise have felt.

I honestly don't remember one single thing about this book after its first line (I will never be able to write a novel unless it begins either "Maman est morte" or "Scarlet O'Hara was not beautiful, but men seldom realized it when caught by her charm as the Tartelton twins were."). I'm pretty sure that if you'd asked me at the time, I would've given it more than three stars.

Maybe someday I'll reread it. Should I?

matthew yes, you should, but you should read "the myth of sisyphus", more importantly, if you haven't.
