I think I like it, but I'm a very literal person and often struggle with comprehending things that aren't written to be technically precise. Let me just ask you some things about how I comprehend this story.

First, is "poor grammer short story" a recognized type or category of story or your description of it?

Is it accurate to say that this is a story about a being, who could be mistaken for a god but doesn't want to be? This being is not really omnipotent but did manage to create the laws of nature which in turn created people. Also, about a person who sought to master the laws of nature and in doing so became as godlike as the being that created the laws?

Basically, I like the story because it has some new ideas. I struggled a little with the writing style but thats just me. I always struggle with writing styles that aren't intended to be absolutely obvious in their meaning.

I don't understand the statement "He was right in his conclusion and meaning of this fact, that all progress relies on the unreasonable man". Is it saying that progress is unreasonable or that if people don't have unreasonable expectations they won't make progress?

Don't feel bad if I'm way off base. I'm pretty much a lost cause when it comes to literary things.

Thanks.
