The Reader on the 6.27

Really quirky and fun. “Similar in look and feel to Amélie” is a fair appraisal.

Playful and simple to read, but if you stop to think about it, it really covers some pretty deep topics. I must have read Guylain's monologue at the doctor's five times before finally accepting that he's not completely oblivious to the nature of his reality, having spent the rest of the book under the assumption he was deferent to the inevitability of the static, unfulfilled nature of his life.
