Bronwyn Wylie-Gibb of University Book Shop, Dunedin, reviews Piranesi by Susanna Clarke. Published by Bloomsbury.
Mysterious, haunting, quite peculiar. Piranesi explores the echoing halls of The House, creating rituals and observing phenomena. This is what living in an Escher drawing might be like, or a many-chambered shell – deeply satisfying and challenging writing.
