I also enjoyed the way language was used, but this might be something that is different depending on the translation you've read. This is one example of the many great passages in the book:
"Je hoorde gesnuif maar het was niet duidelijk of dat door de kou kwam of doordat die kerels werkelijk tranen in hun ogen hadden gekregen, die, toen ze daar geen uitweg vonden, naar hun neus waren gelopen"
*Heb deze review in het Engels geschreven omdat ik eerst alleen de Engelse versie van het boek gevonden had.
