said: i thought the book was excellent. i had to read it for a school project so i was forced to disect every little detail but it was superbly written. i enjoyed the time flashbacks. the only part that disturbed me was the oprangedrink man and estha. i highly recomend it.

This novel completely changed my perspective on many things. It restored my faith in late 20th century literature.

Very articulate. Gives the review that extra bit of credibility, as though the anonymity were not enough.

Very exciting and interesting! Specially Rahel and Estha's emotional connection and that the story are told from the children's perspective. Also the conflict between the touchables and the untouchables.

Dit boek is op zo'n mooie manier in elkaar gezet.
De manier waarop met taal wordt gespeeld.
Het plot wat pas halverwege het boek duidelijk begint te worden, is een ware eye-opener. Dan pas realiseer je je als lezer hoe goed het verhaal in elkaar steekt. En dan pas begrijp je dat dit boek echt een literair hoogstandje is.
