DNF at around 50%. Not sure I'd really call this a fantasy; it is more an invented travelogue. There is definitely some great prose (at times reminding me if A Movable Feast), however, much like sugar, too much is not necessarily a good thing. The story never really feels like it is going anywhere, other than document an apparent psychological breakdown. Apparently things become more focused towards the end, but I'm not inspired to find out.
