The novel is sort of boring, although the ending is impressive. The more important aspect of this book is the critic edition which contains the background, related theory and critic essays of this novel. It introduces me about how Americans analyze a novel. I can learn from it in my later research on other novels.

評分書挺難懂的,很多介紹背景的段落,感覺故事占的比例並不多。諾頓這本後麵加瞭很多背景知識介紹,還有批評文章,但真的看不下去,怎麼那麼多。
