I quite enjoyed this book. It's one of those where a bunch of weird things happen and I'm left wondering "Is this saying something? Or is it just a bunch of weird things happening?" I remember having the same reaction to 100 years of solitude.

For example, one policeman is obsessed with bicycles. Does that signify something or is it just a silly idea that O'Brien thought was funny so he put it in his book?

So, I'll say that I did enjoy this book, although maybe I'm missing some of the profound insight that makes it a classic?
