Pierrot and Rose have no chemistry as well. They seem like twins(?) almost. I tried to find anything were we could see an actual connection and mutual understanding that wasn’t written direct and painfully obvious. I mean cmon „You are my Napoleon,” ???

Like other reviews mention the writing is laden with similies but I wasn't bothered by it. Really, I find it can be rather illustrative. Ultimately, what garnered the 3stars was the fact that the storytelling doesn't allow you to become invested in the characters and by the finish you feel very little satisfaction at its ending. I found that I didn't care much about anything; not the supposed tragedy, or the whimsy. Nothing seems to strike a chord or fill you with as much wonderment as it promised. And my 3 I think is generous because at least it wasn't a terrible book.
