Right? This book! So weird! Sooooo weird! But weird in a way that stretches your brain rather than weird in a way where you're just like "Whatever, dude."

I sometimes complain that certain nonfiction books feel like articles stretched out to book length, but this book has the opposite problem: it's like he compressed a whole shelf of books into one book. I finish a chapter and there are little explosions going off in my brain, but then the new chapter starts and he's talking about something completely different (or at best vaguely related) and setting off more little explosions.
