One passage I particularly liked, but didn't find an appropriate place for in my review, is this one:
Now everything started to happen very quickly, moving to its confusing end, the memory of it in my head is only fleeting and hazy, as though my stacks of orderly thoughts were somehow scattered violently, thrown up in the air, I was carried away, I don't remember exactly how.Now that I think about it, that's a pretty good description of how I felt at the end of several hours of reading 2666 last night.
Right, after reading your review I'm going to have to get that Jonke. Another book for the teetering piles!
