#48: The People of Paper by Salvador Plascencia
This, I guess you would call it post-modern, book about love encompasses most things that come from such experiences but with an added sense of fairy tale. People at war with Saturn, origami surgeons, mechanical tortoises, it’s all there. The thing about this book though is that it’s mostly about lost love, about what could have been. It’s this kind of love that’s always the hardest to read about, no matter how creatively well it’s written. In fact, this book makes the simplest line, “I will build you bookshelves like you always wanted” absolutely painful to read. But on the other hand, I think the entirety of this story goes to show that no matter if it’s imaginary people or the real ones all around us, there are some things that will never be outlandish. I just find it strange that sometimes the books showing worlds most unlike your own can get at reality better than anything else. Is that too vague? Maybe, maybe not. Either way, The People of Paper was an excellent novel.
I would like to read this.
