General: Article is new enough and long enough

Policy compliance:

  • Adequate sourcing: No - There are some characterisations in the themes section that need citation. The epigraph section is unsourced and I'm not sure if it really adds something. I also can't find in the source where is mentioned "Vadim Baranov is the novel's exclusive narrator from chapter 3".
  • Neutral: No - The unsourced characterisations in the themes look a bit like a promotional brochure.
  • Free of copyright violations, plagiarism, and close paraphrasing: Yes
Hook: Hook has been verified by provided inline citation
QPQ: Done.

Overall: There is the problem with the unreferenced claims in the themes section. Earwig's tool gives a 92% similarity with a wordpress site, which however mentions that it is a translation from fr.wikipedia as is this article. Many sources are behind a paywall, so assume good faith for tthem. I think that it is also worth mentioning that this is the first novel of da Empoli.
