Stimey is reading The Imperfectionists by Tom Rachman. This book about a failing Italian newspaper is told in separate chapters, each about a different employee of the paper. It is eloquent and, at times, breathtaking. It's easy to read because of its short story-style set up, but compelling as an integrated whole as well. Recommended.
