It took a month and a half, but I made it through this famous chunker. I am glad I finally read it, and I loved Lewin and his storyline, but a lot of the rest of the book was either anger-inducing (almost all the Anna parts) or a struggle to read (the politics, religion, philosophy bits). So I feel accomplished about finishing it, and I enjoyed parts of it for sure, but I am also glad it’s done.
