Malcolm Pryce: Aberystwyth Mon Amour

Has anyone here read this book? I'm about half way through and I'm wandering if I should give up or not.

I can see that what Malcolm Pryce has done is very clever, creating a serialist pastiche of postcard Wales and Raymond Chandler. But I just feel like I'm meandering through it and I don't really care about the characters too much.

I don't give up on books lightly, but then I've been lucky and the last couple of dozen books I bought I enjoyed extremely.

So is it worth perservering?
 
Don't give up on it! I really enjoyed the book but, having said that, my experience may have been influenced because I went to Aberystwyth Uni so I could visualise everything.

At least finish it though because the end is pretty good. :)
