A review by bookwormione
La Porte des Enfers by Laurent Gaudé

challenging dark emotional mysterious sad slow-paced

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

4.5

A heart-breaking story on loss, grief and death from different perspectives. Gaudé has a very original vision on the land of the dead. I would advise the reader to be in a very good mental state before diving into this book.
