One of the most interesting reviews I have watched for Invisible Cities! We have been asked to critically read the book while understanding Calvino's interpersonal aspects, your review was the headstart I needed! Thank you 🌼

This was fascinating. Thanks so much for introducing me to Calvino, and the prospect of reading about the meeting of two giants. (Adding to the tbr!)

As an American in Italy since 2015, Italo Calvino's work was important in helping me with Italian language acquisition. His uncomplicated style, knack for storytelling, and smart humor proved ideal as I began to read in Italian. He also uses wonderful vocabulary that makes his books so rich to experience. Calvino is a challenge, but not a heavy one, and he never makes the reader feel tired or defeated. If I may say, I prefer his style to other "storytelling" authors such as Eco, who are at times complicated and even academic. With Calvino the freshness of the story and the human spirit comes right through, almost as though unmediated though it is on the printed page.

I'll write the same as the others: I read it too soon, I was younger and hadn't a clue what postmodernism was. I must read it again. The Bookchemist would LOVE this great review.

I read it so many years back, I was so young back then that I think I couldn't get the best of it, so maybe it's the time for a reread. Thank you very much for the good content

Invisible Cities is a great book, which is deceptively simple. I hope you enjoy it if you reread it!

Great video! I read the book many years ago, but it's escaped my senior citizen brain, so I'm going to reread it! Coincidentally, I just finished The Nonexistent Knight. I really enjoyed it, but was unaware it was part of a trilogy, so I'm going to be reading up a storm I think!
