If on a Winter's Night a Traveler

If on a Winter's Night a Traveler

If on a Winter's Night a Traveler

This whole book is less a novel and more an experience. It will constantly pull the rug out from under you, but in a way that feels playful rather than frustrating.

Calvino doesn’t just tell a story; he pulls you into the mechanics of storytelling itself, making you, the reader, both participant and subject.

It plays around with the idea of closure that leaves you yearning for more yet feeling satisfied with what you’ve been given.
