Ottimo libro, il ritmo è costante, non annoia mai perché succede sempre qualcosa e spinge il lettore a voler andare avanti.

Le parti descrittive e quelle narrative si completano bene durante tutto il romanzo, fatta esclusione per l'epilogo, che ho trovato abbastanza noioso e poco scorrevole.

Tutto sommato un bel libro, di bella stesura, temi interessanti e abbastanza inusuali per l'epoca di scrittura.

This was a real pleasure to read. Great pace, clear prose, insight in every line. Bit bathos-heavy in the final chapters but like a deluxe edition of an already great record the bonus tracks are still appreciated.

Moravia constructs a razor sharp, slow-burning thriller that speaks volumes of a morally corrupt political system and the people that stood for it.

bhaines's review against another edition

I liked the movie a little more. I think it made good decisions on what to cut. Sometimes his obsession with normalcy is a little over the top. He also has a weird obsession with the foreheads of a couple women. Not really sure what to make of the gay parts.
