Why Piranesi? Seems more straight up fantasy.
- surprisetalk 3y agoTo me, the main distinction between fantasy and sci-fi is world-building vs. idea-exploration. This book feels more like the deep exploration of a cool idea, which is why I'm recommending it in this context :)
- brookst 3y agoPiranesi is fantasy the way Kafka is fantasy. Which is to say, kinda, if you squint. But mostly it’s allegorical.
