Reviews with content warning for Gaslighting - Piranesi

I was immediately sucked into Piranesi’s world and his constricted reality within the House. I loved how he gave personality to even the simplest of things and his journey to freedom again.

Story told from the point of view of the "crazy" man that gives a warning at the beginning of a horror story. Abuses of "great" men. Things we take for granted within our reality. Loneliness. What is truth

I was utterly taken in by the beautiful depictions of the “house”, a place where I would dream of seeing for myself (temporarily). Piranesi was a joy to read about, his childlike innocence and goodness permeated everything he wrote, although this naivety was his downfall. I was a little disappointed that the book did not include any exploration of the labyrinth where Piranesi could have discovered new areas, instead it was all set in places he already knew well. Overall the mystery was not too deep but thoroughly enjoyable. In a book with a narrator less likeable than Piranesi it may have been a tad lack lustre but having an insight into his mind kept the mystery going because i truly cared about him.
