>reading Demons by Dostoevsky
>feel bored all the time, my desire to read it drops with every page
>eventually drop it at the 400 page mark after procrastinating for like a week
>pick up Gravity's Rainbow
>immediately absorbed, read 50 pages in one sitting
This marks the 2nd realist novel that I dropped in a row (the previous one being War & Peace).
GR? I haven't laughed this hard since Ulysses (Cyclops had me roaring). Slipping on a banana peel? Putting a banana pajama pants? "Incoming mail"? Corporal Wayne? Giant Adenoid? All the fun little songs? Now that's more my style. Give me goofs and gags, not soap opera drama.
