A review by alecrigdon
Harvard Square by André Aciman

3.0

It's no doubt that Aciman is a gifted writer. His knack for building relationships between his characters and filtering it all through a sepia-toned lense is impressive. That said, I was never able to become fully invested in the two main characters of Harvard Square. Maybe the stakes were too low, maybe I didn't vibe with either of their personal plights, but I too often found myself waiting for the next change of pace. I don't regret reading this at all, but it isn't my ideal narrative.
