Is the name of the book perfume? Who is the author? Can you tell us a bit about the story without ruining the plot? I love to read and am excited to hear about this new author.

Hi loved1. Thank for response. The name of the book is The Perfume and the author is Patrick Süskind. It is a story about a man that was born without a proper odour and love perfumes so he became a perfumemaker and try to create a best perfume in the world. I recommend strongly this book. The style of this author is very good. Read it and share with me your opinion please. cheers

I've read the book. I thought it was okay. My boyfriend really liked it though. It took me a while to get into it. I personally felt it was way to wordy. The narratives could have been substantially shorter. It got to the point that I would skip pages. I think the idea main character had was really interesting. It is not the type of book that I would read but at the recommedation of a friend I read it. Moral of the story....be careful what you wish for. I

No ,II did'nt read the book for ever.But I watched a movie called "Perfume: The Story of a Murderer".I dont know weather or not the movie is adapted from this book.I think the movie is good,but the leading role is really brutal.it's really incredible.

I thought this book was great. Very different and the descriptions regarding how the perfumes were made was well done. I thought the movie was good as well.
