Oyeyemi invites you on a vibrant weekend journey through Prague, a city as mesmerizing as the narrative itself. Immerse yourself in the tale, much like wandering through unknown streets, and discover philosophical insights, unexpected moments of raw emotion, and even quirky experiences like wheelbarrow rides and encounters with raw onions.
This novel is a celebration of exploration, both of the city and the self. It delves into the complex layers of truth and deception we weave, while presenting Prague as a dynamic entity, nurtured by the lives of its people. Parasol Against the Axe radiates warmth and joy, serving as a tribute to both Prague and the craft of storytelling.
The best book I read this year so far is PARASOL AGAINST THE AXE by Helen Oyeyemi. It’s extremely weird, so people who can’t handle the weird should prob avoid.
