it is funny there are some hilarious scenes poorly dated scenes but I mean that's part of the charm honestly with books like this came out in the' 60s I think really memorable scenes that I think about from time to time you know it's like a friend telling you a story

I thought the characters were really dull and I didn't find them very compelling they all felt very flat and too similar
I didn't enjoy the process of reading it for most of it until I got to the end when it kind of cracked open for me and I have a strong appreciation for it and I think about it a lot
this is a heist gone wrong story really despicable characters but fun to read about great action your classic Noir in the vein of James M Kane
I have almost finished Texasville which is so weird it's such a weird sequel because it's like a it's like following up King Lear with hot rod broad goofy comedy with the same characters so bizarre
there's so many great characters in this book it just so much is condensed it's almost like a poem in the way it's so tightly packed these layers and layers and by the time I ended the story still unraveling it in my head Darkly powerful
I think it just moves with this Grace it's just it's unreal how perfectly written it is and structured
