Recent discussion about this novel inspired me to start it last week.  I'm 
enjoying it, but do find it a bit strange at times.  Some chapters are like 
essays, expounding or exploring philosophical points  (but the Moby Dick did 
so also).  I like the very short chapters, each making some precise points, 
then moving off to others.  The book is almost one big argument...  At least 
that's how it seems so far.
