4.5

One of the most interesting books I have read - the characters, the narrative, the prose all highlight different aspects of the same theme. Super thought-provoking in many ways. Particularly from a moral antirealist perspective, a good book. -.5 stars because even though I know the density of the prose is intentionally over the top, it got a little too much toward the end.
