Conversely, to under-describe can allow the reader more cognitive room to fill in the blanks. Done well, as here early on, over-description sets the reader squirming. The effect is a little like chalk misapplied to a blackboard. See Russian Formalism. Theres a fine example of the technique early in Charlotte Brontes Villette , when a painting in a gallery is described. The protagonist here may be mad, so his hyper To over-describe is to defamiliarize the reader with the thing described.
Adam watched them absentmindedly as though they, their noise and movement, had no logical connection with himself; and every sensation of his overwrought body, which magnified details, fashioned his being into a monstrous object, a compact of pain, in which consciousness of life was merely consciousness of matter through the nerves.
Thus, the use of defamiliarization. Adam, in short, is a bore, but the prose is not. What drives Adam is reflection, lucid meditation. Starting from his own human flesh, from the sum of his present sensations, he annihilates himself by a dual system of multiplication and identification.
Then we flashback to Adam at age 12, and move on to a turgid bit of pataphysics. Eventually Adam evolves, perhaps inevitably, from squatter and general cynic to ebullient street-corner prophet. There are many ways to go insane on the page. That is a difficult task for any writer.
