I read this book about four years ago and decided that Chuck Dickens and I will likely not meet up again. I suppose if there is no real means of entertainment and you read this in the 1800s in a weekly magazine, or however it was published, then you might be captivated by it. I found it slow, ploddi...

Trainspotting
