A review by aikematilde
The Fly Trap by Fredrik Sjöberg

3.0

I wouldn't recommend this book, but I didn't dislike it at the same time. It was a strange book, different than what I expected and also differnt than what I usually read. But that was what made the experience so interesting. There were some parts that I really enjoyed and other parts that were tough to get through and that would make me wonder why I was actually reading this book. Sjöberg writes in an engaging way, because he could make me follow his information about hoverflies and Rene Malaise, whose importance is not really clear but who nontheless is VERY IMPORTANT to Sjöberg. The Fly Trap made me want to travel to Sweden, not to catch flies though, but to enjoy the beautiful nature where the writer also spends most of his days.
