Buch-Review "The Slow Regard Of Silent Things" von Patrick Rothfuss

Buch-Review: "The Slow Regard Of Silent Things" von Patrick Rothfuss
Dieses kleine feine Büchlein, eine Art 'Spin-Off' zu 'The Name Of The Wind' (eine Buchserie die ich absolut liebe!) hat mich restlos begeistert!
Allerdings ist sie glaube ich nicht jedem zu empfehlen....
Aber bevor ich jetzt hier etwas vor mich hinstümpere, benutze ich lieber einfach die Sätze des Autoren selbst aus dem Vor- und Nachwort, um das Buch zu beschreiben:

"You might not want to buy this book. [...] I think it's only fair to warn you that this is a bit of a strange story."
"It doesn't do the things a story is supposed to do. A story should have dialogue, action, conflict. A story should have more than one character. I've written a thirty-thousand-word vignette! [...] I spend eight pages describing someone making soap. [...] That's something a crazy person does! People are going to read this and be pissed... [...]
"Let those other people have their normal stories. This story isn't for them. This is my story. This story is for people like me." (Antwort von Videobloggerin Vi Hart dazu)
"I cannot help but wonder how many of us walk through our lives, day after day, feeling slightly broken and alone, surrounded all the time by others who fell exactly the same. [...]This story is for all the slightly broken people out there. I am one of you. You are not alone. You are all beautiful to me..."
*schnief*
(ja, zum heulen hat er mich auch gebracht... und das kurz vor dem Ende, mit einem einzigen Halbsatz......)
