How do we balance life’s routine with the desire for something new?” “ Adultery, the provocative new novel by internationally best-selling author Paulo Coelho, explores the question of what it really means to live fully and happily. His words are easy to understand, sure, but I guess I find them difficult to swallow whenever he speaks of insanity and depression (among Coelho’s books, Veronica Decides to Die, which also was about insanity and depression and a commentary on mental institutions, was my least favorite).Īside from my compulsion to buy every single Coelho book to be released, what made me want to buy Adultery immediately, without waiting for the smaller paperback version I collect to come out, was the synopsis on the back cover: I just finished reading my favorite author Paulo Coelho‘s latest novel, Adultery, and I must admit it wasn’t an easy read for me - or at least, not as easy as I thought it would be.
