Richtig gut geschrieben, eine Familienchronik aus dem ungarischen Adel, über Krieg, Vertreibung, Enteignung, Flucht... historisch Interessantes und leichte Tendenzen zu magischem Realismus eingeschlossen. Was mir fehlte, war ein alles einklammernder Handlungsbogen, die eher episodischen Erzählfragmente sind in ihrem Tempo und ihrer Ausführlichkeit etwas inhomogen. Trotzdem dringende Leseempfehlung.
Rezensionen und Kommentare
Vor kurzem hierher umgezogen von bookwyrm.social. Versuche, mir ein möglichst weites Feld an Literatur zu erschließen. Alle Epochen, alle Genres, mit besonderer Vorliebe für die Postmoderne und Science-Fiction. Wenn ich deutschsprachige Bücher lese, sind auch meine Kommentare und Rezensionen auf deutsch.
Recently moved here from bookwyrm.social.Trying to explore a wide range of literature, especially fiction. All periods and genres, with a preference for postmodern literature and science fiction. When I read english books, my comments and reviews will be in english as well.
★★★★★ überragend / outstanding ★★★★☆ gutes Buch / a good book ★★★☆☆ ist okay / it's okay ★★☆☆☆ mochte ich nicht / I didn't like it ★☆☆☆☆ unterirdisch / really bad

I'm deeply moved by this novel. Some scenes in this book are really hard to bear. But its language is so strong and so beautiful in its coarseness, and the characters are so real and deeply tragic and unforgettable. Wow.

You should read this twice
4 Sterne
This was fun. Once I found out, that the storyline was derived from a Doctor Who Episode Adams had written, I couldn't get the fact off my mind again. Nevertheless, it's a very accomplished storyline, perhaps a bit too complex an fast-paced in the end, because when I had finished it, I wasn't able to tie up all the loose ends without consulting a summary. A book you best read twice.
