what is its appeal?
Great prose.
Surreal atmosphere and a fascinating world.
It's written as a captivating puzzle.
It is full of symbolism and tells a meta narrative through it.
It's using postmodern techniques to tell a traditional story with a traditional message.
It is a religious novel with a very deep spirituality.

Of course "appealing" is entirely subjective so whatever I write you could always reply NUH UH NOT OBJECTIVELY APPEALING, I think the premise of the thread is intellectualy dishonest to begin with.

The appeal is in the unredeemed torturer, who is the ony one who can save us from your aberrant philistinism, using either the full boot or the revolutionary. Your excruciation may or may not last until the coming of the New Sun.

Nothing is appealing in itself.
The prose is also fantastic.
