Oh man! Was originally trying to read this book just for fun. Now, it has become more like a required college reading, haha! Seems like I have to refer to additional resources to gain a better understanding. The metaphors, motifs and symbols in this story are really not that easy to comprehend right off that bat.. well, at least for me. I do know why many people rave about this novel...it is very moving in that the author does draw in the reader quite effectively. After a few chapters, I envision being out in a Long Island beach.. wow! Despite all the difficulties in picking up on overlapping meanings and whatnot, I am not giving up! I have like a bunch of other books to read but luckily this one is lightweight and easy to carry around with me. But this sure goes to show, big things do come in small packages, though!
