Piranesi Feels Like A Dream
A strange house, a gentle narrator, and a perfect mystery
Piranesi is short, but it leaves a long shadow. Its endless halls, statues, tides, and birds feel impossible and specific at the same time.
The narrator gives the book its soul. His kindness makes the mystery more painful because the world he trusts is clearly hiding something from him.
Quick verdict: beautiful, eerie, and best read without knowing too much.
