I was pretty disappointed. It started out pretty great, but then nothing else happened in the entire book. I also didn't like the end, cause I couldn't understand why certain things happened.

well written, but not very unlikely (who is so smitten by an actress that he would act like the main character in this book?) I really like the characters at the side line (Ronny, the simple boy, the farmer at the end) and don't understand why the wife of the main character had to be(come) a sex addict, it didn't add anything to the story.

Knap geschreven verhaal, maar mij net iets te glad. Ik moest iets te vaak denken: ja, zo zit het verhaal helemaal goed ineen. Maar er ontbrak dus iets dat me helemaal meevoerde. Boeken die je op een dag uitleest, zijn meestal niet degene die me superlang bijblijven en deze gaat hierop geen uitzondering zijn.

Beautiful written, short story about what a feeling of injustice can do to a person. The combination of F1, a Grace Kelly-like person and the Grimaldi's is interesting, although it's a little tricky to use the name Jim Clarck. The Lotus driver Jim Clark died in a car crash, the same year the story takes place. Maybe it's a homage? I would have liked it if the story would have been a little longer.
