I greatly enjoyed the literary references and the book’s strong basis in reality while retaining its sense of fictional wonder. The plot was repetitive at times, but the repetition highlighted the mundanity of life, bookmarked by more inspiring, momentous events. Overall a wanderlust-inducing read that definitely inspired me to pick up more classics.
