Based on the comments, this is polarizing book. I remember it being a pretty big deal when it came out in 1993, as it won both the Pulitzer and the National Book Award. It's good, if hard to get into and its strengths (and its characters) were pretty superficial. I wasn't a bad read by any means, but I rather indifferent one. A band took their name from the book and it was turned into an unsuccessful movie. Also, you'll learn a lot about knots, whether you want to or "not."
