Rezension zu „How Should a Person Be? “
"Uniquely honest, funny and clever... Heti is superbly truthful, and shockingly funny - no words were minced in the making of this strange, brilliant book" -- Kate Saunders The Times "Original...hilarious... Part confessional, part play, part novel, and more-it's one wild ride...Think HBO'S Girls in book form" Marie Claire "Written with an occasionally wince-making and thoroughly commendable honesty.it's a timely, gloriously messy, openhearted, clever and beautiful new thing" Dazed & Confused "Helen Fielding made it funny and fictional in Bridget Jones's Diary; Elizabeth Gilbert did it without laughs in Eat, Pray, Love. Now in this mashup of memoir, fiction, self-help and philosophy, Sheila Heti has added a bit of a story, quite a few blow jobs and some cheeky exclamation marks, and finally made it credible" Guardian "A really amazing metafiction-meets-nonfiction novel" Lena Dunham, star and creator of HBO series 'Girls'
