Brugerbedømmelser af The Lonely City

  • Minna D. 12. april 2022

    Der var nogle fine passager i bogen, blandt andet beskrivelser af New York i 80’erne - særligt omkring AIDS epidemien. Vi var fire, som læste bogen til bogklub, og vi syntes alle, at den var lidt træg at komme i gennem. Jeg ville ikke læse den igen, men jeg synes dog heller ikke, at den var spild af tid.
