I had hoped to finish The Pages today. I will admit that I find the multiple time frames and characters hard to follow. Much of the same complaints folks had about Cloud Cuckoo Land, which I loved. Audio May be a factor. Interesting this is the third book I‘ve read this year where the book itself is a major character/narrator/author. It‘s not the best of the three to use that approach. Loving both Dona Barbara on kindle, Clare in Print.
The Pages by Hugo Hamilton is narrated by the most unlikely of candidates—Rebellion by Joseph Roth, which escaped a Nazi book burning during World War II and is now in the hands of Lena in the present day US. From its place on the bookshelf to the inside of a shoulder bag, the book tells the story, but it has secrets of its own, including a hand drawn map among its pages. #NetGalley #ThePages
