Between Two Seas - Carmine Abate
Between Two Seas by Carmine Abate
My rating: 3 of 5 stars
3.5/5
Basic premise of obsession, family, and culture, a good vibrant tale of Italian food and love of life. Speedy read, the ending was expected but not made boring by the predictability. I liked the details, it was very easy to maintain a colorful mental pictures while reading. No great insights into the human condition here, it’s a juicy read filled with beautiful scenery/photography and mouthwatering food/women rather than a savory one. There’s a bit of triumph, a bit of tragedy, and a whole lot of the incomprehensible human condition. All in all a decent read.

I am a college student with an artist's melancholy and a scientist's morbidity (yes, there is a difference). Here I collect pretty things, pwnful things, powerful things, along with dashes of humor and fuck yeah moments. Enjoy.
