Book Reviews of Poet and Dancer
Book Review: A Dream of a Book
Summary: 4 Stars
I quite enjoyed Poet and Dancer, as Jhabvala completely immersed me in the world of the protagonist and antagonist. The characters were rich and life-like, but still held an ethereal mystique for me. In particular, Jhabvala's language jolted my senses. Her prose swings its way into the most beautiful poetry. The imagery within the story was covered in a deep mist, but as a reader I wanted that mist there to distance me from the at times difficult scenarios the characters found themselves in.Be prepared for a heartbreak of an ending that will drag to you read another Jhabvala's.
If you like this book, I HIGHLY recommend "When FOX is a Thousand" by Larissa Lai.
