Magnus
Magnus | Sylvie Germain
1 post | 1 read | 1 to read
Magnus is a deeply moving and enigmatic novel about the Holocaust. Magnus is a man searching for his own identity, attempting to piece together the complex puzzle of his life. But his true story turns out to be closer to a painting by Edward Munch than the romantic tale of family heroism and self-sacrifice on which he was nurtured by the woman he believed was his mother. In Magnus, Sylvie Germain uses imagination and intuition to unlock the enigma of human life and confer on history the power of myth and fable.

It's a book that can be read very quickly (in one sitting for me).
I really enjoyed it. The story is really good but also very frustrating. The writing is fluid, it takes the reader away without giving him a break.
