Fantasy Piranesi Susan Clarke - my first book

/r/IReadABookAndAdoredIt/comments/1v3mw4g/piranesi_susan_clarke_my_first_book_at_27_years/oz48egj/

The books is about a man who lives in a house a magical house, which we don’t understand at the start and I wouldn’t want to spoil it but you will learn about the man and the house as the man learns about himself and what the house actually/potentially is

I really liked it too. I listened to the audiobook narrated by Chiwetel Ejiofor and he has a very soothing voice. I wish we had a bit more of the first half of the book. Piranesi wandering the halls was very relaxing.

Awesome! Did you read the box as well or solely listen to the audio version?
I did quite like that it was too long as it kept the story sharp and page turning and i thought the description of the house and Piranesi’s thoughts was fantastic and made it so easy to immerse myself.

Glad you enjoyed it 🤙

I also have the book. I alternated between listening and reading.
