Loved the prose, but found the plot and characters didn’t fully suck me in. This had lots of stunning, introspective writing and the language was superb. Would be worthy of a higher rating if my attention hadn’t wanned between the best-written parts. While I don’t speak Italian so can’t attest to the quality of the translation, the word choice was literary and flowed well. There was also some great imagery throughout. Thank you to Zando publishers and NetGalley for providing me with a free e-ARC in exchange for an honest review.

Thank you to Zando and NetGalley for sending me an e-arc of the new, translated version of this book prior to publication.

'Separate Rooms' tells the story of Leo and Thomas. When Leo's lover Thomas passes away, Leo is left remembering their life together in Paris, and recounts this life through the pages of the book. To gain some clarity amongst his grief, Leo decides to travel. In his travels, he begins to accept the power and importance of memory, and how this will help him to go forward.

This BOOK! Absolutely astoundingly beautiful prose, and the story was incredible. A little bit slow-paced at points, however it kept me hooked and that is all that matters. I felt moved the whole way through this story, and it was so brilliant.
