Translation of: Se una notte d'inverno un viaggiatore.
Calvino shows that the novel, far from being a dead form, is capable of endless mutations. If on a winter's night a traveler turns out to be not one novel but ten, each with a different plot, style, ambience, and author.

COMMUNITY REVIEWS

good, but not his best submitted by nemiller on July 31, 2021, 10:53am I liked the book, but not as much as Invisible Cities. The female characters are very flat. They're more like objects of desire than fully fleshed-out characters.
