A review by dalefu
Ocean Sea by Alessandro Baricco

5.0

This is the rare occurrence where style over substance is a worthy trade off. I think this author could write an instruction manual and he'd still manage to inject it with such stirring fluent prose that I'd give it 5 stars.

That being said, while the style is what won me over, there is still substance here. Intriguing and convincing characters I was sad to leave at the end of the book. An enchanting setting at a forgotten inn on the oceanfront.

A very unique read, unlike anything I'd read before. I loved it.
