It is an elaborate joke on works with lots of footnotes and editorial commentary. If you are familiar with this kind of text you migt enjoy it. Otherwise it will probably fall flat.

If you like Borges or Gödel, Escher, Bach you will enjoy this.

Wow, sounds tailor made for me. I'm part way through GEB, and I have a Borges collection arriving tomorrow.
