Briefly thought this might end on a happy note, but I have been left utterly broken

En sevdiğim Victor Hugo kitabı oldu diyemem kesinlikle. Kitabın yarısına dek içerisine girmekte zorlandım. Elbette değeri esebiyatta büyük bir şey diyemem ancak kişisel olarak karakterlerle bağ kuramadığım ve sıkıldığım için pek sevemedim. Sadece son kısımlarını beğendim güzel bir son oluşturmuş.

A Story about an Autistic man, and what he goes through for love.

I really loved this story. It is occasionally very boring, but I think one of Hugo's more accessible works. It is the best sea adventure I've ever read.

This book is awesome. Yeah, hard words, tecnicismos. And that way of narrative where he just going splaffing all his thoughts on topics even if their no necessary to the text

Nunca em todos os meus anos de leitura me deparei com um personagem mais carismático mais encantador que Gilliatt. Quem já leu o livro sabe do que estou falando, e quem ler vai saber e se encantar.
Esse livro é uma verdadeira obra-prima . No começo o livro é um pouco confuso pois as histórias dos personagens são contadas separadamente, mas na parte final as peças vão se juntando e então aparece o encantamento e a admiração por esse fenômeno chamado Gilliatt .!!

honestly this was such a long read, like i found it really hard to grasp what the story line was until way too late in my opinion. and the descriptions were so long that i sometimes forgot what they were about.
