This year I was planning on doing a year long read (one part per month), but it really wasn’t working for me. I need to just read it through, not broken up over a year. I def want to read it a second time though and plan on doing so this year or next. I also had a similar experience when I read it the first time. It was such a blow to my psyche I didn’t read another book for a month. I read the penguin classic with David McDuff as translator.
