One look at the book, and I knew it wouldn't be so simple. The back cover said it was the the "supreme American novel". The first few chapters sounded like heart of darkness because it was in first person, and because it was about the character explaining about his background, and because it had intolerably long sentences with a plenty of difficult words which sometimes made no sense. In fact, the American slangs used made it even more confusing than HOD. However after reading the first few pages again i realised that it wasnt that bad...But i still didnt understand how being 'privy' to wild men made Mr Nick a politician??? Obviously someone with the name as complicated as Fitzgerrald or something like that had to make a complicated book just like Joseph conrad. His name was even more commplicated till he had to just shorten it. So my new theory is, writers with complicated names make complicated books, period. Just kidding...hehe
