Well, Eric, I guess we'll have to await Stewart's reactions to the book. In retrospect, my reaction to his post should be counted as much too glib.
So, no, the book is not built around verbal ejaculations describing sexual encounters; nor is it built around the Holocaust, despite the possible metaphorical connection that Stewart has astutely observed on the first page. As for 'wordification' that can refer either to the style of the prose presented or to its content, it seems to me. With respect to content, I would say the book is quite varied. With respect to style, I don't think I can say it better than I said it in the review. The author seldom seems at a loss for words, no matter what the subject of his narrative description. If the orgasmic opening scene is not to one's taste, for content, then perhaps the author's style seems more congruous when applied to a description of the torch light parade that impressed me. (Now I have to find it, among all the words). Or perhaps there is a description of a banal scene that conveys his style equally well when applied to ordinary narration. I'll see what I can do on that score. Finding a 'typical' excerpt from such a panoramic book is not so easy. However, it should be easier than my trying to describe someone else's accomplished literary style with the really quite limited literary capabilities that I have. So let me search out some scenes -- spectacular and ordinary.
