The Dry Heart by Natalia Ginzburg

dark emotional slow-paced
  • Plot- or character-driven? Character
  • Strong character development? It's complicated
  • Loveable characters? No
  • Diverse cast of characters? No
  • Flaws of characters a main focus? Yes

4.5

An exciting read that felt both slow and fast. The build up of mystery is cleverly crafted and your sense of responsibility also jumps around. I left reading the book with more questions than answers, but still with the feeling of closure.
