Recensioner

För mycket lycka av Alice Munro

När jag läser Munroes noveller känns det som om jag skulle vilja ha så mycket mer. Samtidigt sammanfattar hon ett helt liv i en kort novell. Några av novellerna är absolut världsklass men några är lite mer mediokra. Nästa bok av Munroe ska jag dela upp i lite mindre portioner åt gången för att lyckas smälta varje berättelse för sig.

För mycket lycka av Alice Munro

Dessa berättelser njutes bäst i små portioner. Det tog mig nio månader att läsa ut boken. Jag gjorde förstås några uppehåll och läste annat. Några läste jag om. Ska nog läsa om titelnovellen om den kvinnliga matematikern på 1800-talet och berättelsen om mannen som var besatt av skogsarbete och vedhuggning.

Hateship, friendship, courtship, loveship, marriage… av Alice Munro

Read it after Munro received the Nobel Prize. And yes it was good. "Hateship" was a very well composed story about the unpredictability of life.

För mycket lycka av Alice Munro

Problemet med en novellsamling är att det är ytterst sällan alla noveller tilltalar en i lika hög grad. Så även med denna. Alla noveller håller en mycket hög kvalitet, men de två bästa är nog ändå den första och den sista. Dimensioner och För mycket lycka. Att den sista är baserad på verkligheten gör den inte sämre.

Trots att betyget får lida lite på grund av de noveller jag inte fann så tilltalande kan jag ändå varmt rekommendera denna bok. Mycket mer lättillgänglig än de flesta Nobelpristagare, men utan att förlora i kvalitet.… (mer)
