review 1: Melancholic and funny, in structure as well as story and characters. (Somehow, Kehlmann pulls off that hat trick.) About fate and accident, slippage between people and between their stories, in this story, from alternating POVs, of twin brothers and a third half-brother and the delinquent father they share. The novel holds everything in light alienation: an enviable, somewhat disassociated stance that often choked a laugh out of me and occasionally left me dazed with sadness.
review 2: ich las es sozusagen frisch aus dem druck - die seltsame geschichte einer familie,die vom vater verlassen wegen der voraussage eines hypnotiseurs, sich in unterschiedlichste richtungen entwickeln...daniel kehlmann ist ein großartiger geschichtenerzähler, ich hätte von jedem So
... morehn gerne noch mehr gehört, leider, oder ein glück ?? bleiben die enden offen, so dass sich jeder seinen teil denken kann.. sehr zu empfehlen... less
