I like the way that some of the dialogue-ish parts were like stream-of-consciousness writing. I felt like an inanimate object listening to a conversation. Or like I was listening to a transcription of someone's observational comments throughout their day. 

The book portrayed a lot of casual racism and misogyny. Makes sense for the age of it, but doesn't make it fun to listen to. 
Interesting to listen to the way traumatic events are described in that generation.
