It's probably more to do with my being much older and more widely read than the last time, but I'm getting a lot more out of Gravity's Rainbow in #audiobook form (George Guidall is a god of narration, might be the USA's Simon Vance) than I ever have before. I think a lot of people who DNF'd it in the past might find they finish it as an audiobook. Guidall makes even the super gross bits bearable and conveys the humor without overdoing the comedy har har. Recommend!
