OH MY GOODNESS! This book is very long and made me fall asleep...so many times...but when I was able to stay awake, Wolfram proved to be very funny!

Honestly, nothing I say would ever describe the experience of reading this piece.

I must say, is it my favorite medieval book? Definitely not. But it sure does a great job at entertaining the reader, even after all these centuries later.

Definitely don't start it if you're not able to handle many, many, many plot developments and characters. It's thick and rich in these two aspects, so be sure to mark them up in order to not loose track of it afterwards!

read for my tales of king arthur class
adventurous medium-paced

Parzival is hilarious and clever. A bit dense of a read (partly though because we had to read 70 pages a night for my class) but intriguing, compelling, and always worth a good laugh. And it had some excellent plot twists 😂

3.5 A little long and rambly, but overall entertaining. Oh, Parzival.
