On Reading

I'm reading Zadie Smith's latest book, NW, and it's not an easy book.  I've had it for weeks, reading a page or two here and there, and, there just seems to be no entry point for me. It's not a problem with the characters, I like them, I like the listlessness of the main character Leah, how she's got a degree, a job, a husband, all the things a proper girl should want, and yet she's still so unsure of what, exactly it is she wants, and whoo, lordy, can I relate to that.  Perhaps it's the structure that's giving me problems; it's almost as if Smith has purposely constructed her novel to be inaccessible; short, choppy chapters, weird dialogue indentions; it's not an easy book, but Smith has such a beautiful way of writing the everyday that I'm going to keep trying; might take me awhile, though.
