karinlib 's review for:
If on a Winter's Night a Traveler
by Italo Calvino
It's taken me years to read this book. The opening chapter is just beautiful and a reader's dream. Then the story starts (and this is where I have previously put the book down). Bottom line, it's a tale of two readers: the Reader and the Other Reader, and their search for the ending of a story (or in this case 10 stories).
Who can resist this title, or that first chapter? There are beautiful passages later in the book that reach the sublime. As readers we can connect with the Reader and the Other Reader and understand their frustrations.
