Leider ist das Buch wirklich sehr abfällig. Erst verabredet sich die Hauptfigur mit jemandem an einem Ort und dann regt er sich zwei Kapitel lang darüber auf, dass er die Person und den Ort nicht ausstehen kann. So geht es eigentlich die ganze Zeit und das ist sehr anstrengend. Außerdem braucht diese Figur wirklich dringend Hilfe.

Może taki był zamiar ale główny bohater był absolutnie okropny. Główną treść jego monologu stanowiło to jak bardzo wszyscy ludzie są okropni, nudni, nadęci, dziwni i zboczeni (w przeciwieństwie do niego oczywiście). Zakończenie było bardzo niemrawe i nie rozumiem właściwie, co autor chciał przekazać. Bunt głównego bohatera był bardzo płytki, a tekst nie zdawał się tego zauważać. Plusem jest to, że bardzo szybko się to czyta.

Novel dedicated to the og incel Holden Caulfield. As troubled outsider lit surely we can do better than this in terms of highschool curriculum.

I would say it’s not entirely clear from reading the book, but Holden does seem to experience Mania at some points (he also experiences depression).
