A review by lisadb
The Dante Club by Matthew Pearl

3.0

I would agree with other reviewers that it was hard to empathize with these characters. They reminded me a bit of the ones in Catch 22 who were too absurd to seem real. Also didn’t like that there were basically no female characters. Interesting plot but could not get lost in this book. And ew, I will not be able to get that image of maggots out of my head for a while. But overall, OK.
