I'll forget having read this book; I'll never get the urge to revisit it; and yet I cherish the hours spent reading it.
Thank you palette cleanser.

keytone's review against another edition
no way it took me 2 weeks to read this.... i'm really not sure why, i was just incredibly distracted the whole way through and it didn't engage me at all. the weird thing is i could tell it was a good book and i liked the prose but i just wasn't interested.

Cheguei até 'Jules e Jim' como quase todos chegamos - pelo filme. Numa bonita edição da Relógio d'Água, em promoção na Feira do Livro, que por ter dado origem à obra cinematográfica de Truffaut desperta uma enorme curiosidade, conheci o mítico triângulo amoroso e a estranha amizade de Jim e Jules - com Kathe, sempre, pelo meio.

"Jim rivide Jules nella sua città. Subito ritrovarono le loro ore insieme - era così semplice. Sarebbe stato impossibile a Jim dire che cosa fosse Jules per lui. Li avevano, in passato, soprannominati Don Chisciotte e Sancho Panza. [...] Provava, insieme a lui, un piacere totale per delle inezie. Si godeva il buon sigaro di Jules molto più del suo. Fin dal primo giorno, Jules istruiva Jim, in ogni momento, senza saperlo. Jules attirava Jim come una calamita."

Ci ho pensato, e alla fine il responso è stato quattro stelle e per un unico motivo, aver già visto il capolavoro di Truffaut. Cosa dire di questo romanzo splendido se non che assomiglia ad un fiume, alla Senna? Imperdibile.

At first this book is charming. The author has a unique ability to describe moments of tender intimacy--particularly the friendship between Jules and Jim and some of the descriptions of their life in Paris and relationships with various women. But after 100 pages it was like listening to a friend who is in new relationship and can't talk about anything else--boring and self-indulgent. I think we have all known a person like the character of Kate. While the main characters seem to be enthralled by her unpredictable actions and overflowing sexuality; from outside the love triangle she seems to be cycling endlessly through manic/depressive outbursts. I did not read her as a liberated woman straining against convention but rather as someone who didn't see beyond her own petty manipulations. It really isn't even about love or romance but codependency and self-indulgent bourgeois tedium. Perhaps that was the author's intention although since it ends with a hint that the he may have been planning to write Kate's diaries I doubt it. What I really would have wanted was a book from Lucie's point of view; she seemed like a much more complex and fascinating person.

So di sfidare l'accusa di lesa maestà, ma ho trovato questo libro espressione di una morale volubile ed estetizzante, la storia di una donna evidentemente disturbata e di due nullafacenti avvizziti e senza nerbo, in più raccontata con una scrittura piatta, senza stile, elementare. Insomma, un discreto esercizio di onanismo mentale.

La storia è interessantissima e vorrei conoscere ancora meglio la biografia di Rochè, ma ho trovato la lettura penalizzata dallo stile troppo asciutto, con frasi così brevi da sembrare citazioni. So che è il suo stile, ma mi ha impedito di apprezzare appieno il romanzo.
