steffi_r's review against another edition
4.0
Uff. Was für eine Geschichte! Intensiv, rau, wunderschön und erschreckend zugleich. Manchmal wusste ich gar nicht mehr, in welchem Kopf ich mich gerade befinde. Eine Geschichte über Flucht, Identität und der Suche nach einem Platz im Leben, über Liebe und Schuld und wie traumatische Erfahrungen das eigene Erleben beeinflussen. Dem Leser wird hier nichts geschenkt. P.S. ist ein gnadenloser Erzähler.

Tre stelle per lo stile di scrittura che è, come sempre, magistrale.
Per il resto, questo libro, mi ha trasmesso ben poco, ha uno stile molto frammentato e confusionario, salta da una parte all’altra.
Non iniziatelo credendo tratti l’identità di genere perché in realtà c’è molto altro: è intriso di storia albanese e della condizione dei profughi.
Forse con delle aspettative diverse mi sarebbe piaciuto di più.
