I read Piranesi when it came out and I remember how fascinated I was regarding the House and the concept of being imprisoned in one’s mind. I remember that I interpreted the House as an inner retreat of Piranesi after experiencing trauma. I can be completely wrong about this as it has been a while since I have read the book, but this is what have stayed in my memory.

Definitely need to reread it.
Lovely, insightful review for an absolutely stunning book.
