Zone by Mathias Énard

5.0

A 517-page novel that is comprised almost entirely of a single sentence, Zone is an astonishing, brilliant work - maybe the most important and ambitious book I've ever read. Not for the literary faint of heart (it is a difficult, arduous read to begin with, but gets easier the more you immerse yourself in its world), but worth the time and energy you put into it.
