A nice reason for this being dnf - as I read it, I was struck by how beautifully it is written, and checked my library to see if there is an available audiobook. I want to try it with that medium instead. I read The Disordered Cosmos on audiobook, and the narrative way this is written reminds me of that book. So I'll be back to this very soon when I am commuting 2hrs/day for three days a week in September.
