The novel is superb. First time I read it, I had the feeling that I was waking up from a long and fitful slumber. I went through a Percy phase shortly after, but in my opinion, "The Moviegoer" is the best example of his work. I reread it every other year and introduce it to all of my friends.
I've never heard a bad review.

This is a good bridge work to reading S. Kierkegaard.
