review 1: do not get deceived by the European union prize for best fiction that smilevski won for this; this is a waste of time (though it takes only this much time to finish it) that you could've spent on mann or marias or murakami. the best thing to say about the novel is that there's a promise short-lived at some random points in the book, like when adolfina meets rainer right after she contemplates on durer...well, if only such short passages could save a novel!! but as it is, the novel doesn't deserve a saving...May smilevski, already anointed heir to grass(!) and saramago(!!), write something more soulful and deeper and prove worthy of good readers next time...
review 2: Ми се допадна овој роман.Фиктивна автобиографија на... more Адолфина Фројд,сестрата на Зигмунд Фројд.Потресна приказна за лудилото, отфрленоста, човечноста, маестрално раскажана од Гоце Смилевски. Приказната останува во главата долго по читањето. Остава едно тегобно чуство и дилема каков човек бил всушност Зигмунд Фројд. Неговите четири сестри завршуваат во концентрационен логор. Тој имал можност да ги спаси но не го сторил тоа. less
