This is one of the finest books I have ever read in my life.

I might even go far enough to say it is, objectively, one of the best books ever written. I recommend it to pretty much anyone. I almost consider it required reading. I don't think I've ever had an experience like this reading a book. This is an entirely unique and singular breed of excellence and atmosphere. Every character is as alive as you and I.

Every writer can learn a thing two just from studying the structure and prose of this book. It is a masterwork, even from the likes of Dickens. Dickens makes so many other writers look infantile in comparison.

Finalmente l’ho finito! con le lacrime agli occhi, e’ finito!
Come non dare cinque stelle a una tale grandiosa opera?
