Disclaimer: Throughout the video I refer to the book as "Le Mépris", which is actually the original film title rather than the original book title. This is a slight mishap on my end, the original book is translated "Il Disprezzo". Sorry for any confusion - thanks for watching!

I saw this book in the bookshop and the cover really stood out so I searched it up to see if it’s any good - you’ve certainly convinced me to go back and buy it.
