It's like a French movie from the 1960's, kind of. You should read it so we can compare notes on it. It's not a novel in the conventional sense and it doesn't land on major chords, so to speak. It's sort of akin to The Unbearable Lightness of Being in that the reader is aware of the artifice and construction of the book around the experience of the reader. I'd like to read something else by Calvino to get a better bead on him as a writer.
