A review by emi0610
Copenhagen by Michael Frayn
5.0
a book about physics and walking, sign me tf up.
No but now for real, I am a huge sucker for plays. I have always loved analyzing these the most. And especially plays with historical real figures, Maria Stuart by Schiller is one of my favs for a reason.
This one takes us on a journey to the afterlife. And I loved every second of it. The unclear red thread throughout the whole story, the conflicts, the protagonists. I really enjoyed it all.
The work really touches on some amazing topics. The sense of self in conflict, the concept of loyalty, the insane things we do for the need to finish our own self prescribed destiny. And for me most interestingly: the concept of truth. We all know the difference between subjective truths and the real truth. But also, does a real truth even exist for human interactions? Aren’t human interactions in key dependent on the subjectivity of the interaction and all relating factors? A wonderful thing to think about.
A wonderful reading experience, beautifully written dialogue and a gripping storyline which left me thinking even days after I’ve finished it
