Mi sarei aspettato uno svolgimento diverso, più cruento, ma nonostante ciò il libro resta assolutamente valido.
Un po' lento e a tratti noioso in alcuni punti, resta avvincente e interessante in altri.

However, being an American concept, or at least something started there, I wasn't expecting to find anything particular related to it in an audiobook by German author I picked because I was looking for something short to fullfil a prompt for a readathon.
I started the book with zero expectations. Actually, I thought I probably will be bored by it and will have to push through it if I wouldn't dnf. (Not the best experience with classics here). I was so wrong.
Words are not enough to say how heartbreaking this tale is. How the really, really sad part is that everything happening there, has happened in real life.
The book itself is an open, aching wound. And in the same time is a love, sad letter to all people lost in wars that had nothing to do with them. Lost in every possible way a young person - young people - can be consumed and destroyed by war.
