Piranesi’s house is no ordinary building: its rooms are infinite, its corridors endless, its walls are lined with thousands upon thousands of statues, each one different from all the others. Within the labyrinth of halls an ocean is imprisoned; waves thunder up staircases, rooms are flooded in an instant. But Piranesi is not afraid; he understands the tides as he understands the pattern of the labyrinth itself. He lives to explore the house. There is one other person in the house—a man called The Other, who visits Piranesi twice a week and asks for help with research into A Great and Secret Knowledge. But as Piranesi explores, evidence emerges of another person, and a terrible truth begins to unravel, revealing a world beyond the one Piranesi has always known.
So today’s date in Piranesi style would be… The fifth day of the fourth week of the month of march in the year of albatross Is that right? 😂
Who else jumped and cheered!!!!! I'm so happy that it's getting an animation adaptation, I've always thought the prose could be wonderfully translated through an animation medium. Super looking forward to it! Source: https://deadline.com/2024/06/piranesi-movie-travis-knight-laika-in-works-1235978218/
I'm starting to feel like I'm too dumb for this book. Like by no means do I think it's bad, I just feel like I'm confused and don't get it
