Rating - 4 stars

The title of this book caught my attention with its intriguing promise of a paradox. A paradox, by definition, embodies conflicting features or qualities, leading me to wonder what sort of paradox Dante, the author, would explore.

As I dived into the short chapters, I found myself immersed in a series of narratives that defied conventional explanation. Each story challenged my understanding of science and reality, leaving me both fascinated and perplexed. From the very first chapter to the final one, every tale held me captive with its enigmatic twists and turns.

While I could relate to some experiences shared in the book, such as the uncanny synchronicity of feeling pain in the same place as a loved one or the serendipitous delays that turn out to be blessings in disguise, others recounted by the author left me utterly mystified.

These narratives provoke deep contemplation, inviting readers to question the nature of intuition and the existence of phenomena that seem to defy the laws of nature and science.

In particular, the bond between Dante and his daughter emerges to be more intriguing than the rest, characterized by a rare connection akin to that of twins, where they share not only physical sensations but also dreams with uncanny precision.

This captivating collection of stories serves as a journey into life's mysteries, exploring the intricate connections between family members and the profound depths of human emotion. It's a thought-provoking read that I would rate 4 out of 5 stars.
