Piranesi
(Bloomsbury)Piranesi is a man with modern problems – he’s a homeowner. The titular protagonist of Susanna Clarke’s 2020 novel, Piranesi has been living in a house with a square footage that other modern adults can only dream of. His house is vast enough to contain a labyrinth of hallways and rooms, some of which are wide enough to hold oceans within. While it sounds like a wet dream to any NYC apartment dweller, Piranesi’s living situation has its drawbacks. For starters, he can’t find the exit. According to his one and only visitor – a mysterious man called “The Other” – Piranesi’s work is too important for him to think about breaking his lease. The lonely fellow spends his days cataloging the quirks of the seemingly infinite house. But as for why he’s there and how he’ll ever escape, that’s a modern problem for you, the modern adult reader, to solve for yourself.
