Wow, really intriguing. I love stuff set long ago. Kind of reminds me of Perfume, but probably a lot less creepy. (Though Perfume was good, too!)

Ok, I’m intrigued. And since it is short, I don’t feel bad adding it to my TBR list!

I’ve got this waiting to be read. I might move it up a bit after reading this review. I liked the bit about playing pool too!

I’ve been trying to find a few novellas to read recently, but most of the one’s I’ve encountered have left me less-than-satisfied. Still, something about this description sounds intriguing. The idea of playing pool against yourself may be what’s got my attention…

Short books are hard to review….and this sounds intriguing, though for some reason silkworms…or the idea of them makes me squeemish

I read this book a few years back in it’s French version, also a small book, and loved it. Alessandro Barrico wrote other lovely books I believe are translated in English.
