Đây không hẳn chỉ là một câu chuyện tình lệch pha, mình cảm giác cuốn sách mang một sự cay đắng cho những con người ở sai chiến tuyến, họ làm những việc độc ác không phải do con người họ độc ác nhưng cũng không hẳn là do ép buộc, chỉ là công việc, một công việc làm chai sần những cảm xúc và nhận thức đúng đắn của con người
When he was fifteen, Michael Berg had a relationship with an adult woman. Later in life, he reminisces about how big an impact It had on him.
Although it seems like it, this is not just a coming-of-age book. In post-WW2 Germany, it also touches on deep ethical questions. Any more would be spoiler.

I really enjoyed this novel. At times I felt it was really fast-paced and that the author could have given the readers more to the story of Hanna because I really didn't know her that great in the novel. I love Schlinks writing though and the story line in this novel made it an enjoyable read.

Honestly, I couldn't get through it... It might have been the adult love affair with an adolescent that was creeping me out.

It's a short book--you can read it in a day but it's still incredibly thorough with a satisfying ending. I liked everything about this book. The characters aren't really likable or relatable in terms of characteristics/personalities, but you still feel what they're feeling. It was weird, but cool.
