A review by zarlynsnook
On the Isle of Antioch by Amin Maalouf
mysterious
reflective
- Strong character development? No
3.5
This book that has intrigued me with its premise did not quiet gave what I was expecting. I love that it is written in first person POV and I took away a lot of wisdom from this book especially about our society.
But in general, reading this book was not a satisfying experience for me. The characterization fell of that I just don't see the point of them in the book at all. There could possibly be a lot of elements on this book that got lost in translation,I always take this factor in consideration when reading and reviewing translated works.
