- Loveable characters? Yes
- Diverse cast of characters? No

Finally read this classic. It was a delicious, dark, funny, melancholic, inventive, horrifying book that worked close to perfectly for me. I look forward to rereading it throughout life and I am very glad to have finally picked up Vian's work.
