A review by unfortunatecircus
Beatrice & Virgil by Yann Martel

challenging dark emotional informative mysterious reflective sad tense slow-paced

• Plot- or character-driven? Character
• Strong character development? No
• Loveable characters? No
• Diverse cast of characters? It's complicated
• Flaws of characters a main focus? It's complicated

I don't know what to say. the last like, 10 pages completey pulled the rug from under me so to speak. that did not end how I ever imagined.
