No disappointment here - the hype is absolutely justified in my view.
I loved High Place (the spooky mansion in this story) with its rotting decadence; a once wealthy place now abandoned. And I relished the feeling of something not being quite right; the creepy atmosphere Morena-Garcia was wonderfully able to bring to life. A fantastic gothic tale set in 1950 in rural Mexico - one of my favorites books this year!
I read this duology (Six of Crows & Crooked Kingdom) back in 2016, but I remember it VERY fondly. Initially set after the events of "Shadow and Bone", the makers of the hugely anticipated Netflix series (coming in April 2021) have decided to have the plots of the two book series (Shadow and Bone Trilogy AND Six of Crows Duology) run at the same time.
And while I liked "Shadow and Bone" I LOVED Six of Crows with its action-heavy heist story and convincing lovable characters. So you can imagine how excited I am to see how the show works out! Either way, the books have a firm place in my heart forever. Don't miss out!
Hisham Matar invites us to spend a "Month in Siena" with him to look at Sienese Art - this is a short, but delightful mix of literary essay, memoir and art history. Even though he clearly has a lot of intellectual knowledge about them, Matar finds value in these artworks mostly through personal connections. Without having to claim to be able to explain anything, his approach consists mainly of picking out some details that resonate with him the most. Thereby, Renaissance Art suddenly appears to be beautifully accessible in surprising, unfamiliar ways. It's all about finding some new perspectives: to look at art and life alike.
Since her surprise bestselling debut "The Outcast" Sadie Jones has produced persistently excellent novels that explore new territory every time. Her latest work "Amy & Lan" depicts a utopian farm project through the eyes of two of the children growing up on it. Best friends since birth, Amy & Lan grow up through the seasons, through calf births, the building of new houses, the planting of crops and idyllic midsummer festivities. Their childish exuberance and pleasure in their surroundings carries the narrative along, while the troubled lives of the adults increasingly break through this idyll the more the two children grow up. Jones' novel is a mastefully crafted look at utopias and their demise, she captures the beauty and hope through the children's eyes while never quite concealing the adult problems behind the scenes. The rural setting is evoked beautifully but never naively and even if the dream can't last, a strong sense of hope prevails in this touching gem of a novel.
It's the same old story: as children we look for reference figures who can guarantee our survival. But most of the time things do not work out as they should. The result? Unbalanced attachment patterns. Our love relationships become a battleground, where we have a whole arsenal of emotional weapons at our disposal, ranging from self-isolation to complete annihilation. The key word is "insecurity". The situation is already complicated if we are talking about monogamous relationships, but what happens if the paradigm shifts from the monogamous mindset to that of polyamory, when the imperative becomes I'm with you because you are special and unique, but not the only one? That is what Jessica Fern explains in this The Ethical Slut 2.0, applying attachment theory to CNM (acronym for Consensual Non-monogamy). The bottom line? "The establishment of a secure relationship with our self is needed to fully embody healthy attachment with others". Well... Amen!

2017 hatte mich Thomas Mann mit seinem "Zauberberg" und der Erstlektüre von "Der Tod in Venedig" so fasziniert, dass ich von dort aus eigentlich das Gesamtwerk erkunden wollte. Nach dem erneuten Lesen dieser wunderbar-tragischen Novelle tut es mir sehr leid, genau das nicht getan zu haben. Meine Eindrücke vom 1. Lesen konzentrierten sich vor allem auf die Beschreibungen Tadzios (fast schon hymnisch besungen in seiner Vollkommenheit und Schönheit). Beim 2. Lesen suchte ich nach mehr Vorausdeutungen auf den "Tod" und die sind mannigfach, zahlreich überall in den Text gestreut (allein das Wetter, das andere Erleben Venedigs, das Altern, das Reflektieren Aschenbachs!). Aus aktueller Pandemie-Situation heraus wird man sicher auch das große C. im Text nicht überlesen können, mir selbst kam es beim 1. Lesen nicht so eindrücklich vor wie jetzt im Jahre 2022. Ein absolutes Meisterstück einer Novelle!
