I'm a native-level (European) Portuguese speaker, and although I can get through the beginning, it is with some effort.
I'd describe the style as being akin to stream of consciousness, but with a somewhat jumbled sentence structure on top. Of course, I use the term 'jumbled', but I'm sure it's intentional, and it does have a striking effect because of that.

There's a graphic novel of it that you may find interesting. You can probably find it in portuguese bookstores. It's available on Amazon in some countries.
