Adrián Astur Álvarez reviewed Remembering Babylon by David Malouf
Review of 'Remembering Babylon' on 'Goodreads'
3 stars
What a difficult little book. I'm not sure what I would have made of this story had I not been familiar with Hegel's Master/Slave dialectic. Still, though high on intellectual delicacy, the narrative was a little low on nourishment. Is it possible for a writer to be too masterful to be interesting?
