And truly a "novel" i.e. unlike anything, in terms of not only content but also structure. (Which can of course be good and bad, but to me originality was most important.) And I am not saying all this because it is my book, but it is my book because I was striving to write something most worthwhile, to me, a book about "everything".

    But if you don't maybe wait for the film version of it. :)
