![]() ![]() It’s an exercise in slowing down, being in each moment as it happens and simply letting the story wash over you and through you. In the end Piranesi is rather like a zen meditation. Where was this story taking us, what did we need to pay attention to, what did we need to remember? Some of us started making lists of the statues and rooms, but before long, we all reached the same decision – to simply let it all go, and go with the flow. It ended up being one of the best book discussions we’d had together during my time with the group.Ĭuriously we all had a similar response to the beginning, in that we felt some hesitancy. Piranesi was the book I chose for my book group to read in November. I’m really not sure how I can write a review for this story that will do the reading experience justice. This is something that happens only every eight years. When the Moon rose in the Third Northern Hall I went to the Ninth Vestibule to witness the joining of Three Tides. ![]()
