Winter's Tale by Mark Helprin
5.0

Winter’s Tale was, as many others have said, a lot- it was packed full and heady and felt elusive and ephemeral. For me, that gave it potential, meaning and made it stay with me after I turned the last page. The myriad characters and stories all directed in search of some beautiful truth or ideal; the perfect city- they resonated with me in an eerie way, as if this was what I needed to read now more than ever. Not for everyone, I’m sure- but for me, I was happy to be lost in the perfectly just city.
