This is the 2nd installment, pursuing Noam and Noura's impossible love story through the millenia. Hit by a mysterious thunder in the neolithic age, they become immortal. Ever since, they try to surpass obstacles to be together as they have at least one immortal ennemy.
While trying to detract a terrorist attack in the present day, Noam writes his memories; he depicts their tribulations in the age of flourishing Mesopotamia and the Tower of Babel.

I enjoyed this book. I learned a lot of things about languages I had never thought about before.
I had no idea what this was about when I chose it to be my book of the month.
I thought the ending dragged on a tiny bit, but it is worth a read if you have the time. It is a long one!

Since I read 4 books of her this year, I wanted to make an extra post to celebrate R F Kuang. The Poppy War trilogy moved me greatly and I‘m still thinking a lot about it. Babel was a perfect mix of fantasy & history, with great discussions about linguistics, colonialism and the need for a rebellion.

I just finished this magnificent book and I‘m left with awe. I will give The Poppy War another try after this. As a linguist student, I really enjoyed all the discussions on translation, and as a reader I fell in love with Robin, Ramy and Victoire, and I followed their story until the emotional end. It‘s really, really good.

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️/5
