A review by frogwithlittlehammer
Petersburg by Andrei Bely

adventurous challenging reflective

4.25

I am like Sofia Petrovna bc her mind could not be kept off of Granada.

The prose is groundbreakingly creative and exquisitely colored (literally) but I feel like I did the book such a disservice by skipping the footnotes (bc they were in the index and I’m not about to catch carpal tunnel flipping to and fro!!!) so I cannot accurately review the novel. It will get a reread for sure, when I’m in a more modernist mood. 

Thank you to my bookstore crush at Troubled Sleep for the recommendation <3
