Една кратка и сравнително интересна история от Ю Несбьо и нещо по-различно от книгите за Хари Хуле. Действието тече бързо, следователно и се чете така. Като времева рамка сюжетът се разгръща в дните преди Коледа, а краят, който ни поднася авторът, напомня леко . Така че ако тази година сте решили да избягвате сладникавите коледни романси (като мен), то „Кръв по снега“ с подчертано зимна и мрачна атмосфера може да бъде един чудесен избор за декемврийско четиво.
4.0 ⭐
P.S. При все че книгата ми се понрави, засега все още не съм попаднал на книгата на Ю Несбьо (след прочита ми на „The Bat“ и „Cockroaches“), която да оценя с пълни 5 звезди, затова търсенето продължава…

Recenze 2023
Stejně jako u Fredricka Backmana začínám Nesbøho tvorbu kratičkou novelkou. A ani náhodou jsem nesáhla vedle. Mám pocit, že čím jsem starší, tím víc mě zasáhnou krátké výstižné příběhy, které mají přesah. Nesbøho Krev na sněhu přesah tedy měla. Vsadím se, že kdyby tento příběh autor rozvedl na plnohodnotný román, byla by to topovka. Takhle to bylo trošku urychlené, ale to autor nejspíše zamýšlel. Ale byla to pecka. Potřebuji další díl, to je jasné.

Seznámení s Nesbøho tvorbou hodnotím velice kladně.
A stand-alone book (ie. not a Harry Hole mystery) that proves that Nesbo can step outside his comfort zone in terms of characters; the tone and feel of this book is still very familiar. Rather than a somewhat conflicted policeman with questionable morals and methods, we have a hitman who is aware of his mental limits, although he's very good at what he does and has definitely overcome the dyslexia he perhaps has. This last month or so in Olav's life - or is it? love the uncertainty at the end - is wonderfully detailed, with a nice blend of violence and love blended with a solid moral code.
If this is the only time I meet Olav, fine. But perhaps? Please, Mr. Nesbo...

Lots of twists, kept changing what I thought was going to happen...have to read the second one to know the ending...
If you could see my bookshelves (real bookshelf), Jo Nesbo is the first name you'd read. When I was on thriller binge, like two years ago, I heard about Nesbo and bought bunch of his books, all pretty lengthy, his name written with big fonts on the spine of the book. I've five books of him, but unfortunately, I don't think I'll ever read any of them. When i read Redbreast i thought it was pretty amazing even though I'd skimmed last few pages- I rated it four stars here because I thought I'd missed something and I'm the one to blame. I tried this novella, which is not a Harry Hole book, just to try out if there's a tiny hope that i can get into Nesbo, looks like that gate's closed.
Talking about this book, this is the sort of book I'm supposed to like. Dark, gritty, short length, short chapters, philosophical, character study, melancholic, written by middle aged man, and Nordic. But the hackneyed translation, or real bad writing, I can't say which for sure - spoiled it all. If you're looking for a Japanese version of something like this, you should try out Fuminori Nakamura.

Non avevo mai letto un noir scandinavo prima, ero certa che questo genere non facesse per me anche se non l’avevo mai letto… e in effetti è proprio così: i noir non sono roba per me. Qui di violenza ce n’è tanta, non gratuita forse, ma raccontata sempre in modo distaccato, piatto, quasi freddo. Credo faccia parte dello stile del genere “noir scandinavo”, ma è una cosa che mi ha messo proprio i brividi.
Diciamo che non consiglierei a tutti questo libro, perchè rientra in un genere troppo gelido e violento per essere apprezzato. Ma se il genere piace, questo libro è originale, ben scritto e porta con sé non solo violenza, ma anche molti spunti di riflessione.

Cool start of a serie!
Also this book matched the snowy weather outside which is a bliss.
