Well, I found the poetic side of this a bit repetitive and, yes, disappointuing.
Every time Clough opens his mouth Peace has a rule that what he says has to include the words "bloody" and "fucking". And the next time, the same but in the other order...
And each chapter has to have a flashback. And there shall be no women in the book.
After a bit, it was strangely moving and interesting, but I don't think it lived up to the praise.
The film is meant to be good...
