There are shades of Rabelais

in this gargantuan feast of lingual felicity, peopled with giants and
morbidly obese alcoholic grotesques. The long-winded sentences seem to have
been secreted rather than accreted (which is apt since the novel is awash
with jizz, piss, puke, shit and snot). A single sentence describing a young
woman walking towards her boyfriend under the anguished eye of a third
character, who secretly pines for her, is agonisingly and hilariously drawn
out over the best part of three pages.
