Quando la storia entra nel vivo, nella parte + interessante, avrebbe potuto approfondire largamente mentre invece molto viene lasciato “all'immaginazione del lettore”, la narrazione si fa intricata ed un po’ confusa e molte spiegazioni sono solo accennate.
Comunque un gran bel romanzo che si fa leggere avidamente nonostante risenta molto degli anni trascorsi. Consigliato.… (altro)
