Kuang truly is a remarkably brilliant writer. From the opening page, I was hooked. The way she plays with words and phrases, allowing them to hold so much power and intellect, will always be mesmerising for me.
Katabasis is a descent into hell, with deep philosophical musings, a thorough criticism towards academia, and one hell of a heartbreaking love story.
Journeying through hell with Alice and Peter felt like a catastrophic vacation with those two friends who keep denying how they feel about each other. There was so much to unpack and take away from each page, as we dive deeper into what has led them both to hell, and its a journey on so many different levels.
Is it too soon to read it again?
