    <body><![CDATA[The first disappointing Alan Moore book I've read. Moore goes completely off the map with his text inserts in this collage-style book within a book. It echoes the style of &quot;Behind the Mask&quot; from <a href="http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/472331.Watchmen" title="Watchmen by Alan Moore">Watchmen</a>, but with less interest. The inserts attempt narrative changes and parodies of classic English literature, but they only serve as long distractions from a primary narrative that isn't very compelling. I think it could have been served by a stronger editorial hand, but given Moore's overall work I'm willing to forgive him a few indulgences in hearing his own voice.]]></body>
