Review of 'The man on the balcony' on 'Goodreads'

The translation was clumsy at times, and the pacing was a bit off. The plot progressed really slowly for the first two thirds of the book, and then ended extremely abruptly. All this being said, this wasn't bad at all. I quite enjoyed it, actually. I'd certainly give it a chance, despite its flaws.
