A literary zombie novel. Yes, you read me right. I'm 100 pages from being done. And this is about as far as I'm going to go with it. It wasn't... bad, per se. It had some really interesting ideas and interesting world building but the convoluted language and unnecessary jumping around in timeline meant I slogged through most of it.
There is one line, though, that made the book almost worth getting through. I laughed so hard.

“They wore ponchos, and what else but a being cursed with the burden of free will would wear a poncho.”

There. Now you don't have to read Zone One unless you really, really want to.
