I read An Instance of the Fingerpost, which everyone seems to love, and thought it was incredibly boring. Then I read The Dream of Scipio and thought it was really good. Conclusion: I like reading multiple, mutually analagous stories better than I like reading the same story told from multiple viewpoints.

I like his short stories a lot. If he wrote anything longer I don't know if I could handle that.

If you do a google image search for "jayhawk", you will see a picture from our apartment in Kansas. I'm a jayhawk!
