I read it the first time when I was 13 and laughed all the way through it. I read it the second time at 18 and got very depressed. Perspective will change your view of this book. A great book in any case. The main character makes the book.

A great novel. Definitively deserves its' reputation as one of the best American novels of the 20th century. ...more
