Query: Disappointing book in schizophrenic-stream of consciousness

After muddling through the first 170 pages of this book, I had to give up. This book is written in the style of a schizophrenic stream-of-consciousness. Although the idea of a story based on the Persephone/Hades myth has potential, the overly descriptive and disjointed writing style make this novel more difficult to decipher than a college entrance exam. There are too many characters who are just kind of thrown into the pot, and none is either very interesting or apparently relevant. Although some images and settings are intriguing, character development and plot are sacrificed for excessive detail and crude sexual innuendo. There are three fools here: the author, the publisher and me.
