Audible. Good whimsical tale with intertwining stories. But....

Think about HOW YOU FEEL when you are in the company of:

Someone sitting clicking their pen-in/out in/out in/out.

Someone who bounces their leg so furiously you can feel the floor move under your feet.

Another snapping/chomping their gum so loudly you can’t even think.

These people aren’t in this book, but the characters in this book are similarly quite anxious/nervous/troubled. Had I been in the apartment amongst them, I would have been “twitching” from the level of the chatter, irrelevant conversations and nervousness. Anxious people make/made ME feel anxious/bothered. I just wanted to stand in the middle of this group (ALL anxious) and yell “BREATH”.

I generously gave this book 3 stars. Too far fetched. Too many short stories. Too long. I don’t know why I hung on until the end.

Piękne przesłanie, wzruszająca historia o ludziach, ich zmaganiach i problemach. Jest niczym ciepły kocyk otulające serce i przypominający że nie jesteśmy sami w naszych codziennych trudnościach. Ta książka to kopalnia mądrości i wartościowych cytatów.



 

"Jest to historia o wielu sprawach, przede wszystkim o idiotach. Powiedzmy to sobie wprost: z łatwością przychodzi nam uznawanie innych za idiotów, ale tylko jeśli zapomnimy, jak idiotycznie trudno jest być człowiekiem. Szczególnie gdy mamy kogoś, dla kogo staramy się być w miarę dobrymi ludźmi."
