I remember reading this famous book when I was teenager but could not recall much of it so I decided to re-read it.
I got two impressions out of it:
The first half is quite "scary" especially if you like to read books before going to sleep and it is dark around.
The second half is incomprehensible. I did not understand it and lost interest. Thankfully it is a short novel so I finished it quickly.
In the end I will say that this novel copies its narrative and remains true to its core idea that people are not equipped [yet] to understand behavior of an alien life form. Unintended side effect of it is that reader will find herself/himself at a loss after reading this book.
