A review by aziraphales
Perfume: The Story of a Murderer by Patrick Süskind

dark mysterious reflective tense medium-paced

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

5.0

this is a weird little freak of a book that i will never stop recommending to EVERYONE!!!!  swings viscerally between overwhelming you with phantom scent and a sharp sense of humour and the consideration of what actually binds us all together -- and how easily we might break that binding apart
