Ich bin Gott

The novel delves into the mind of a character who believes himself to be a divine figure. I'm curious whether Faletti drew from specific philosophical ideas or personal experiences.

The character's actions are unsettling but also compelling, which made me question whether I was sympathizing with a villain or a victim of circumstances.

The story feels very rooted in Italian society and history, and I wonder how much of that backdrop was chosen to enhance the story's themes.
