A review by slavicreader
Astonishing the Gods by Ben Okri
challenging
mysterious
slow-paced
- Strong character development? It's complicated
- Diverse cast of characters? It's complicated
- Flaws of characters a main focus? It's complicated
3.0
This was a random find - something my library app recommend for me which sounded intriguing.
This is one of those books that leaves you wondering what you've just read. Because I'm not too sure. Some of the concepts were really good and resonated with me, others not too much. There's a LOT to unpack. Sadly I think a good chunk ended up going over my head.
It's a strange read that will give you a lot to mull over and digest.
