Probably one of the most fascinating, deeply significant stories I have ever read next to the Buried Giant. I was engrossed and lost in Piranesi's labyrinth alongside Piranesi, determined to uncover the mysteries of the "hidden world- within a world" that Piranesi has only ever known. Such rich writing and storytelling had me in the first chapter.
