Literary-Criticism

One of the best design books ever written

I embarked on this (silly) goal to read ten Spanish-language books in 2023, but stupidly picked this 555-page monster with plenty of challenging Castilian vocabulary as my first book. Unsurprisingly, my reading speed in Spanish is far slower than English, and I discovered how much of my love of books is due to reading quickly. I kept on pausing this book to read other quick (English language) reads, so it took me about a year and half to finish this. I enjoyed the book, though my Spanish isn’t quite at the level to fully appreciate the quality of the writing.

Didn’t speak to me, but perhaps I was too young

Barely finished this, not sure how I was convinced it was worth reading (it is not).

I have no idea how this has a 4.2 on Goodreads or how I managed to finish it.
