Started reading for a book club I couldn’t end of going to. Was enjoying the book but not enough to finish without the book club. Might revisit in future.

Se esse livro tivesse sido escrito hoje, os editores teriam trabalhado muito e ele teria metade das páginas... Mas menos da metade da personalidade.

Lungo, molto lungo e a tratti noioso. Tre stelle le merita per i momenti in cui si riesce a percepire profondamente l’amore tra i primi due coniugi, un’amore che persiste nonostante le bugie, le sofferenze e anche la morte.

Il finale, dove lui è un fantasma, mi ha letteralmente fatta morire dalle risate.
