In many ways, reading Giovanni’s Room felt as if I was in the titular character’s room as well, where, as David pointed out, hours and days had no meaning. I was in a room that encapsulated so much: claustrophobia, intimacy, sensuality, the sense of being unmoored—a room filled with complex desires and struggles.
And I absorbed every bit of it.
