I have just finished the novel today and I thought it was great!

Bjorn,
I dont agree with you that Ohlsson rambles. I actually like that Ohlsson did NOT try to copy S?derberg in style as he would only fail and what would be the fun and point in that?

I think that Ohlsson has managed to find his own style without the reader looses the orginial touch of the story and that is very hard to do and keep in a 445 pages long novel. I actually admire Ohlsson for taking a stand in doing his own thing and not trying to copy S?derberg.

The book would not have worked on its on as you only get the psychological insight of Gregorius where as Dr. Glass presents all the 3 main charachters very well. So read Dr. Glass first, then Gregorius.
