Con gusto me hubiera leído otras doscientas páginas sobre la doctora Weiss, con la maravillosa prosa de Anita Brookner, excelente traducción de Catalina Martínez. Un bonito recorrido por Londres, París y la literatura, de las relaciones humanas. Eso sí, la literatura no fue lo que le arruinó la vida, fueron sus padres. La literatura la salvó y le podía haber dado mucho más.

anita brookner. eine entdeckung für mich und gleich zum ziel gesetzt ihr gesamtes werk zu lesen. sprachstil und schönheit der worte in formulierung und präzision. einfach und doch so gehaltvoll. wunderbar atmosphärisch, melancholisch, traurig schön. zurück bleiben fragen, die einen nicht loslassen.
