Amazing
Brilliant, lucid language, considered plot, satisfying ending.

Bored to death
By an author who is capable of writing literature, this "book" is a self-serving journey into the field of psychiatry and I, for one, have never had much use for psycho-babble.
Aside from that, it appears that the author is obsessed by sex and male orgasm----
This book is boring.
