A review by finocchio
Harvard Square by André Aciman
4.0
Expecting the delicate splendor of Call Me By Your Name, I was taken aback at not only the narrator of the audiobook, but the story itself. But as things progressed I got it. It was different book - dah - and I enjoyed it. And it was good if not unbelievably unbelievable is so many ways.
There is the main character, who seems like he's 13 going on 22 who is really 27 (or so) and a character bigger than life who seems like a Titan who never seems to have any redeemable traits (well, hardly any) except he can dominate a room.
Oh well, I love the author's erudite fiction (not at Eco's level, mind you -- but more intimate). I will continue to work through his oeuvre.
