Rezension zu „Coetzee, J: The Childhood of Jesus “
"A fine, haunting novel that gets under your skin and into your marrow" -- Jake Kerridge Daily Express "A moving but mysterious story of a lost childhood... All I can say is that ever since I finished it, it's been going round and round inside my head like nothing else I've read in ages" -- John Preston Sunday Telegraph "Certain novels impress us with their strangeness. JM Coetzee's The Childhood of Jesus is such a novel. Haunting" -- Salley Vickers The Times "This is a book to make you think. This is a book to forcefully turn you away from mindless entertainment and set you on a journey inwards, where you ask yourself the important questions in life. It's philosophy as fiction... Part of his achievement is down to how fit for purpose his prose is. It is remarkably sparse and yet feels dense, weighted with layers and layers of meaning" Irish Independent "Written with all of Coetzee's penetrating rigour, it will be an early contender for an unprecedented third Booker prize" -- Tim Adams Observer
