I really enjoyed the book the ending had me shocked. I also enjoyed Grenouille’s character and how he was perceived and that we got to see his thoughts and dreams it added a lot more depth to his character.

“Het parfum” is een zeer zorgvuldig  geschreven psychologische thriller dat zich afspeelt in de 18de eeuw, specifieker de vieze, stinkende en de rijke straten van Parijs. Hij opent een nieuwe manier van denken in je brein. Je gaat op een rollercoaster van emoties: ervaar verdriet, woede, eenzaamheid, avontuur,, wanhoop en pijn. Vreugde, opluchting, hoop en vrede. Het boek maakte me zo kwaad dat ik alle personages levend wou begraven, maar soms kon je niet anders dan empathie voelen met elk personage.
