Recently I read John Kennedy Toole's Confederacy of Dunces. Initially, I struggled with this book, as the main character is so odd and so down and out. Ultimately, though, the bizarre yet enjoyable writing style won me over, as did Toole's own affection for his characters. The decision to rehabilitate Ignatius Reilly at the end of the book really makes this story a winner. Highly recommended!
