Everything about this book made sense. It had me thinking about whiteness in communication and friendships, and Wallace was a character exploration i had never read anything like. At first i was like ok, enough with the birds, but by the end i feel like i got it. Just really freaking astute, gutting, challenging, everything.

יש לי בעיה קשה עם הספר הזה, כי הוא כתוב -נהדר- ממש, וחלקים גדולים ממנו מופלאים ברמת חמישה כוכבים, אבל החלקים שלא כ״כ מעצבנים שאני לא יכולה, פשוט לא יכולה, לדרג ביותר משלושה.

3.5

 3,5/5 oder 7/10

Frustrierend, deprimierend, nachdenklich.

Real Life ist schwierig zu beschreiben und so ist es auch sein Inhalt. Schwierig, nicht einfach einzuordnen. Eine sich abwärts windende Doppelhelix, die nicht auseinandergeflochten werden kann. Niemand hat Schuld und alle haben Schuld an einem kaputten und unsensiblen System, in dem jeder nur seinen eigenen Schmerz wahrnimmt.
