American Gods

Some beautiful language in this work of fiction, however the characters, events, and scope of the novel fell outside my wavelength. There was a surreal quality to the storytelling and characters that I struggled to make meaningful. This is not a limitation of the author, rather it is a reflection of my own deficits, my lack of imagination, and my preference for literalness. I never fully appreciated Vonnegut, Voltaire, or Hesse either for similar reasons.
