A review by rita_pereira
Curiosity by Alberto Manguel

2.0

Very disappointing. Manguel's books on reading and books are amazing, but this one turned out to be more of an academic analysis of the "Divina Commedia" sprinkled with random facts than an interesting journey across the meaning of curiosity. I don't think the frame he chose for his thoughts or the actual reasoning beyond the questions chosen for the chapters worked in this context.

And not only was this book something other than what I was looking for; it was also hard to read and boring more often than not.
