A review by april0686
The High Mountains of Portugal by Yann Martel

3.0

The book is divided into three sections, and I found each section to be better than the last. The novel took me a while to get into-I wasn't super invested in the initial main character, or his storyline, so the first section really plodded along. The second section drew me in, and the last section kept me more glued to the page. Each section's main character deals with a major loss in their life, and what I found most compelling about the novel was discovering how each of these characters dealt with that loss uniquely.
