Literary Fiction
by Italo Calvino
The Reader—yes, you—begins a novel only to have the narrative repeatedly interrupted, launching you into fragments of ten different stories across genres and styles. Calvino transforms reading itself into an erotic adventure, a detective quest, and a meditation on storytelling. A playful postmodern labyrinth that makes the act of reading its own thrilling subject.
