My Rating (out of 5): ⭐⭐⭐
You can immediately tell that Calvino is a fantastic writer 5 pages into this book. However, I did not enjoy the book, mainly because I did not appreciate what the book was about.
While I enjoyed the dialogues between Polo and Kublai, I did not derive much satisfaction from reading descriptions of far-flung cities, hard as I tried.
The whole book felt like a series of well-written short stories, but worse.
