This is probably my least favorite graphic novel, and I think Foir never been to Egypt.

I liked the art, the colors really set the mood. It goes very fast and it leaves a few questions open. I don't regret reading.

Another 3.5, but rounded up because I really loved the artwork.

Cinquemila sono i chilometri che separano i fiordi dalle piramidi, la Norvegia dall'Egitto, ma tra Lucia e Piero c'è una distanza molto più grande di cinquemila chilometri: ci sono anni di cose non dette, di scelte rimpiante, di triangoli amorosi, gelosie e incertezze.
Mi aspettavo che la delicatezza delle tavole ad acquerello (alcune tra cui quelle in cui la pioggia è protagonista sono davvero molto belle), si rispecchiasse anche nell'intreccio di questa graphic novel, ma con l'avanzare della storia tutto diventa un po' troppo esplicito e sbrigativo, e lascia l'amaro in bocca, che insieme alla delusione, è ciò che più mi è rimasto chiudendo il libro.

I found this book difficult to follow as the illustrations didn’t always make clear who was talking. The characters didn’t have very much dimension and the story would move forward in time so quickly that it was not satisfying to pursue the outcome.
