Creatures of Light and Darkness-Roger Zelazny. What do you think about?
The book is strange and short. Yet the language is beautiful. I manage to read the whole book in 1 reading, ignore a few difficult sections.
But I feel like I have been duped. After the book I bring out nothing. Can not sympathize with the character. Can not understand clearly the plot. And I feel the character not consistent.
The book fill with paragraph like this:
Insofar as I may be heard by anything, which may or may not care what I say, I ask, if it matters, that you be forgiven for anything you may have done or failed to do which requires forgiveness. Conversely, if not forgiveness but something else may be required to insure any possible benefit for which you may be eligible after the destruction of your body, I ask that this, whatever it may be, be granted or withheld, as the case may be, in such a manner as to insure your receiving said benefit I ask this in my capacity as your elected intermediary between yourself and that which may not be yourself, but which may have an interest in the matter of your receiving as much as it is possible for you to receive of this thing, and which may in some way be influenced by this ceremony. Amen.
What do you think? Is it worth a re-read?
