Very long and not 100% great. It feels like it doesn't quite fulfil its ambition, but overall was a surprisingly engaging read and I enjoyed it.
Wouldn't recommend to people who don't like huge books though.

You're pretty spot on, really.
I think I admire a lot of the book, and in its own way it is very much a great work of contemporary/post-modern fiction. But more for WHAT it does for the genre rather than all of its content.
