It is not beautiful to read like a novel but nobody would expect that anyway, it is purely rated by its content and relevant information it holds, which, is immense. Also when reading this book you may pick up on little bits of Marx's humor spread throughout. The first volume of a political treatise that changed the world One of the most notorious works of modern times, as well as one of the most influential. One thing to bear in mind, it does take some time to get used to Marx's writing style but after that, and once you are past the two hardest chapters (1 and 2) it becomes more fluid to understand his theories - not to say that the first two chapters are too difficult just a bit more than the others. In fact I think the world would be better if everybody understood it. If you have any economic, political or philosophical interests, I would highly recommend it. Rather than spend his time explaining what Socialism should look like, he goes into detail fully analyzing Capitalism, the contradictions within it and where we must stand in order to conquer it. Das Kapital is more than just another book by Marx, it is an accumulation of his best ideas and arguments.
