adventurous tense fast-paced

2.0

Although the description of his travels are incredibly vivid and beautiful, I was extremely uncomfortable with the descriptions of his cruelty towards Modestine, the donkey, as well as his casual and flippant misogyny and the pervasive religiousness and egotism of the narrator. I found myself drawn in by his description of his travels and immersed very deeply only to have the illusion broken every now and then by his bigotry and cruel nature, resulting in a very dissatisfying read.
