review 1: Ik vond dit een top boek. Het las heel erg vlot (ik ben het gisteren gaan ontlenen en had het vandaag uit). Ook de inhoud was interessant. Een metaforisch, fantasierijk verhaal om over na te denken. De corrupte mens die zichzelf ziet als opperwezen en alles dat afwijkt verafschuwt maar die bij nader inzien toch niet zo 'ideaal' zou zijn/zou handelen. Het dier dat daarentegen evenwichtigheid uitbeeldt, alleszins in zijn oorspronkelijk biotoop.
review 2: So... I usually don't like Dutch literature because most of it seems a bit pretentious to me (admittedly, I don't read a lot of Dutch literature, so I might be wrong). Let's just say it doesn't appeal to me. This book I had to read for a class. It didn't sell well, while it got very good reviews. I started readin
... moreg it and it completely blew me away. Totally not expecting this! It's well written and built up. No names or places are mentioned, except the dream world. The first person narrative makes sure that the reader slowly realises what is actually going on, and boy, was it different than what I originally thought! The blur kinda gives it away though, but I hadn't read it before starting to read. Tip: if you want to read this, don't read the blur! I would definitely recommend this, it will make you think about society and other issues but i don't want to give anything away! less
