How the text is laid out is part of the "actual content" of the book. If the lay out was confusing to *most* people then the book still has a problem.

[dethtoll]

I could have phrased that better but my point was that the layout is unusual on purpouse. I'm actually not surprised people have trouble with it, but that's because a lot of people can barely put three words together.

Ugg, your one of those.

"Clearly you don't enjoy the book because you aren't educated/sophisticated enough to "get" it"

Fuck that.

Just because they did it on purpose doesn't mean it wasn't a shitty decision - and if it alienates a shit ton of readers, well, I'm sure you can see where I'm going with this.

[dethtoll]

I'd have been more chastised if you hadn't misused "your" for "you're."

Go look at the book before you judge please.

[(Anonymous)]

*Gasp* A grammatical error! Oh no! Everything I said suddenly has no meaning!

I'm not judging the book. I'm judging YOU.

Over the course of this thread you stated that the book is underrated because most people are too stupid to deal with the weird lay out choice.

[augustbird]

lmao anon you definitely need to see the book

[(Anonymous)]

I'd argue it's not that they're too stupid to, but that they don't want to bother. They don't want to put the work in. Dare I say... they're too lazy to want to spend time working out how to read the book. They just want their book to be presented the exact same way as every other book they've ever read.

And that's fine. Heck, 'm too lazy to read books longer than about 500 pages. Doesn't mean those books are bad. Means the book isn't for those people.

You're really reaching here, sweetheart. I read late Henry James for fun. I learned Greek so I could read the poems of George Seferis in the original. I gave House of Leaves far more time and effort than it deserved. And I still say it's a pile of pretentious crap and that admiring its tricks and gimmicks is a good a litmus test for people who think they're cleverer than they are.

[(Anonymous)]

Are you seriously saying "it alienates a shit-ton of readers" is a sign that means a book is bad?

[(Anonymous)]

it's meant to be alienating to the readers. it's arguably a part of the book. i get what you're trying to say here, but you're coming off as really misinformed in this case. it's kind of an artsy book, it's kind of weird, and that's the point. it doesn't meant it's shitty. it might alienate people to the point where they don't want to read it, but that doesn't mean it's bad, it probably just means that the book isn't quite for them (and that's not a bad thing).

[arcadiaego]

No, it just means it's not for everyone.
