Brisbane by Eugene Vodolazkin

5.0

This was such a profound story, raising philosophical questions, and reaching deep into your heart. This really raises the question about our personal identity, and how it's defined, especially when who you thought you were is ripped away. (I've been in that position, and had to suddenly redefine who I thought I was, and I thought this did an excellent job of embodying all the complicated emotions that go along with it). Seeing Gleb's story play out through Sergei's lens just adds more depth to everything. Overall, this was a fascinating story, that pulls you along with a unique literary voice. Highly recommend.
