Absolutely hilarious! The narrator is so much like Michael Scott from The Office (US), it makes me wonder if they didn't create his character after Dostoevsky's awkward and ridiculous lead. Split into two parts, the first half is a monologue of little snippets of viewpoints and behaviours held by the narrator, and strung together by his outrageous ideas and insecurities. In Part II, the narrator takes a look back on his own life, and we get an even deeper look into the embarrassing, cringe-worthy and at times, hard-to-read-because-it's-just-so-painfully-awkward moments that helped shape the narrator into the unique man he would become.
