It took me a long time to read this somewhat peculiar novel. I can't quite work out how much I enjoyed it. It's thoughtful, cerebral, but often meandering and difficult to follow. I expected the book to be mainly about Willie Stark, but in reality it was much more about Jack and his internal monologue.
