I think you guys are missing the point ... it's Supposed to be Bad
Literature.
IMO the mechanical non-sequitors are part of the "parody".

I'm not sure it's necessarily even "Bad Literature"; check out "The
Secret Life of Walter Mitty" by one of the greatest humorists of all
time, James Thurber. (A Google search will turn up any number of copies
that can be read online...or you can go to your local library.)
