schöne prosa tröstet leider nicht darüber hinweg dass die geschichte nicht so gut erzählt wurde

wollte das unbedingt lesen als jack edwards meinte dass das „der italienische fänger im roggen“ sei aber diese geschichte ist as character-driven wie ein murakami (lol) und ein großteil des romans ist tell statt show

He built a wonderful, enticing atmosphere but he suffers of the pesky inability to write complex characters that also happen to be women.

Nothing really happens yet everything happens. A man goes through life without much motivation as he navigates getting older, romantic relationships, friendships, and vices. Leo is all of us on a certain level, he is flawed but he is a very real character and Calligarich makes you genuinely care for him even when he makes gigantic mistakes.
