i don't think i would be able to describe it either. temeraire Send a noteboard - 25/09/2009 05:32:15 PM
i agree, it's quintessential calvino... the baron in the trees is another favorite of mine. i have read all of his books, i think if on a winter's night a traveller is one of the most hypnotizing texts... even if it gets a bit disjointed between the sections. i think the most coherent story of his was the path to the nest of spiders. they are all fascinating, though.
"it's like the real world, except there's dragons!"

cw, you are missed...

You know how you have this list of books to read this year, and how you follow it slavishly? Camilla - 25/09/2009 07:07:14 PM 1994 Views
