A review by lindalindilindum
Das Lied des Propheten by Paul Lynch

dark slow-paced
  • Strong character development? No
  • Loveable characters? No
  • Diverse cast of characters? No

2.0

Maybe the booker prize was the friends we made along the way.


Notes: 

-no paragraphs? 

-Literally no mother instinct let alone survival instinct? Boiling frog syndrome maybe? At the very least a boring main character 

- overwritten and wannabe poetic stream of consciousness 

-why did Ireland become totalitarian overnight? How?

- I was really looking forward to this dystopia but it seemed so unrealistic in a time where you only need to turn on the news to get a lense into real-life misery and dystopic circumstances
