I read it on a recommendation from readers of McCarthy's last works "The Passenger" and "Stella Maris". Loved it! I've picked up Lebatut's latest, 'The MANIAC' and I'm not enjoying it as much (though, I will note that the first chapter is riveting).
I thought "The MANIAC" was electrifying, particularly that final section on Lee Sedol, and now I'm even more excited to pick up "When We Cease to Understand the World."
