I also find that it tends to be more concise which lends to denser code. The density can be a bit off putting until you become accustom to reading it. The other part that is weird is having all of the closing parenthesis on a the last line.
Consider the idiomatic way:<p><pre><code>  (defn do_stuff
    [coll]
    (filter #(&gt; % 10) (map Math&#x2F;sqrt coll)))
</code></pre>
Vs<p><pre><code>  (defn do_stuff
    [coll]
    (filter #(&gt; % 10) 
            (map Math&#x2F;sqrt coll)
    )
  )
</code></pre>
Even though this is the same code, if you are coming from a c-style background the latter is probably easier to read.
