Love the story. So mesmerizing!! Would read it again in a heartbeat!

A feast for the senses.

Description of the scenery makes me want to visit France. The main character was versatile and layered with bother humorous and frightening points of view on the world.

Kurt Cobain read this book.

In all my life, never has a book captivated me more than this. I finished it within 6 days, which is quite an accomplishment for someone who doesn’t read much. I believe the vague ending not to prove the story meaningless, but to inspire endless contemplation, and for the reader to derive their own meaning from the tribes and tribulations of Jean-Baptiste. A magnificent read, as artfully crafted as they come.

I gave it one star, because I couldn’t give it any less. Pointless, contrived and a complete waste of time.

A poignant story of a uniquely gifted man (kinda autistic savant ) who, haven't experienced human affection in life, connects to the world primarily through his sense of smell. Struggled through life looking for his place in this world but to no avail. It's unfortunate that many great talented young men go to waste all because they are born at wrong place at wrong time. The movie was done in good taste. Music is awesome! 👍👍👍
