The main characters were all quite interesting and I could easily identify myself with the protagonist, Todd.
Still, I would have liked to know more about the other characters (perhaps then I wouldn't have been so confused about who's who, haha).
The frequent switch of perspective left me confused as well, but I grew to like it after a while. Another thing I really liked about the novel was its main message: That you should live and not only exist, and that you should seize the day.
While "Dead Poets Society" was a rather short read, it was definitely impactful and the film is now one of my favourites.
Carpe Diem!
