The Book of Proper Names, by Amélie Nothomb

albamellark's review against another edition

2.0

Resumiendo, Diccionario de nombres propios es un libro que apenas me ha gustado. Una protagonista fuera de lo normal, con una prosa por parte del autora también particular. Un ritmo irregular que no logró engancharme. Un final inesperado y precipitado.

shumska's review against another edition

postoji nekoliko elemenata koje a. nothomb redovito provlači kroz svoje priče - mršavost/izgladnjivanje, savršenstvo djetinje dobi (10. godina života je apsolutni vrhunac) i čudnovati međuljudski odnosi - dovoljno realni da bi bili mogući, a istovremeno sasvim nevjerojatni u stvarnom svijetu.

volim autore koji mi ne priređuju velika iznenađenja i koji godinama ostaju vjerni svom stilu, a stil a. nothomb je jedan od najupečatljivijih koje sam srela. i namjerno kažem "najupečatljiviji", a ne "najljepši" ili "najumješniji". kroz neočekivane obrate, bizarne situacije i tihu duhovitost, njoj opraštam i sitne nespretnosti i poneku kvrgu u tekstu.
