I must say that I am really shocked by all these comments. What's it with that youth? :) The book is good for the time it was written and for the genre it represents.
On the other hand, really good prose is by no doubt Yordan Yovkov. Poetry - Yavorov.
"Bay Ganyu" is a satire, focused on the negative side and frankly it made me sad reading it. But it is a very well written book.
Just read what you feel like reading. Like your Mom. "Shoulds" are overrated. :)
