What makes this book slightly tedious is the fact that the brain injury he has doesn't allow him to retain things so he repeats over and over again, forgetting that he has already said it. I kept thinking I was getting stuck on the same sentence on a page only to realize that it was just the same sentence being repeated aka the epitome of redundancy. The actual injury is rather fascinating; how his vision changed, his memory (and lack thereof), how to read and relate, but unfortunately this information is told in the most boring and uninteresting way humanly possible. It definitely isn't enjoyable to read.
