Sounds like this would be a tough read! I did enjoy One hundred Years of Solitude, so perhaps I would like this more than you did, but I don’t know when I’d feel in the mood for all the rape etc. probably have to pass on this one, but great to hear your thoughts, as always.
I loved One Hundred Years of Solitude, but this one no. It was greatly lacking on the history in my opinion. I think he was trying to do too many things.
Great! I need to check out the video. This book has been on my radar for quite a while. And I like the reviews stating its magical realism aspects
Well if you read it, I’d be interested to hear what you have to say about it.
I have had this on my reading list for many months now. Not sure that I want to read it any longer having heard your thoughts
I say check it out from the library before paying the money. Definitely wasn’t my cup of tea.?
Hi Didi! This sounds like one I need to be in a certain frame of mind to receive; so I will pick my moment, carefully ?
Yep to say the least. I just wish I cared about the characters, learned more about Indonesia, and that the female characters were more than just sexual props. If and when you get to it let me know what you think. ?
