Bewertungen

both blunt and eloquent

(4 Sterne)

If one recalls the title the absurdity in the unfolding story has a clearer context. The moral and spiritual allegory is none too subtle. Not for everyone, fans of spy thrillers least of all who should look for John Buchan instead.

Extremely Boring!

(2 Sterne)

While this is a well read book, I find it extremely boring and far too drawn out.

bad audio

(2 Sterne)
