Wunderschön geschrieben und sehr berührend. Das Buch weckt Erinnerungen an Erfahrungsberichte von Menschen, die an Depressionen leiden. Eine Erinnerung daran, das eigene Selbst nicht immer tiefer zu vergraben und zu verstecken.

I would recommend this book to everyone, whether philosophically interested or not, it is inherently fantastic in the entire course, it speaks so much truth and despair, and D. H. Lawrence should not be unknown. He has a beautiful narrative that makes descriptions seem real. The pages just flew by, it’s definitely one of my favourite books. It is written so sensitively and unworthy of people, which sounds hard and stupid but is incredibly ingenious. Read it, it fills my heart.
