My gut feeling - a short story idea unsuccessfully drawn out to novel length.

Initial echoes of Vonnegut meets Auster proved flatteringly deceiving.

By half way through I was truly bored but continued in the hope its early promise would be mirrored by its conclusion.

Alas, no.

I have no real idea what I read nor any desire to figure out why that is so.
