The Search for the Dice Man - 'Luke Rhinehart'
I can't do my hatred of this book any justice. I just can't sum up, now, here, the vitriol and rage that this novel stirred from my usually pleasant being.
I don't really know where to begin with this. Which aspect did I hate more? The unlikable roundtable of cunts that compile the main characters here? The condescending nature of the author through out the book. The stupid diceliving theory. The constant sexualizing of everything. The artwork. The ending? The inserts by 'Luke'... I can't do it.
The plot is utterly flippant and transparent. Larry, son of Luke Rhinehart, is looking for his dad (for some reason, not really well indicated) to... Hmm, well, it doesn't really make clear why he's after his dad. His two dimentional fiance, Honoria is the 'straight' woman clearly indicating the life of structure and conformity, his equally two dimentional and infuriatingly annoying bit on the side is Kim, the chaos of his life. The book actually states this in black and white many times. KIM IS CHAOS, HONORIA IS STRUCTURE, LOOK!!
God. It's so fucking preachy too. Open ur eyes to the life of randomness?!!
Fuck it. Life's too short for this garbage.
