Review:

Erudite to the point of superciliousness.

Like a graffiti artist leaving tags to show their cleverness, the author dropping in an absurd amount of shout-outs to Donne, Spencer, Dante, even Shackleton.

Prufrock was better:
In the room the women come and go
Talking of Michelangelo

This book made me want to: drink bubble tea
