Özlemişim Echenoz kalemini. Hiç öyle aman kısacık kitap hemen biter niyetiyle yaklaşmayın valla tersi pistir bana kalırsa. Kendine has tarzı yine akıcı sakin ama vurucu cümlelerinden net olarak anlaşılıyor bence. Sık cümleleri es vermiyor bu anlamda biraz odaklanarak okuma istediği için görünen 60 sayfa mı? Hissedilen hiç öyle olmuyor. Ravel’i okumak keyifliydi çünkü böyle kitapları güzel kılan yegane şeylerden biri hiç hesapta yokken, sıfır beklentiyle okumak diye düşünüyorum.
Bazen akla düşer ya: Echenoz okusam, Mişima okusam, Kundera okusam, Paul Auster okusam perileri? Tam öyle bir noktadayım işte.
Başladık sağ baştan, Allah keyfimizi bozmasın nerden baksan 10/10. Ama kitap 4. Bizim turşu bu şekil.

A perfect, small book. Beautiful and compact. Funny and sad.

pretty and detailed writing but honestly quite boring 😔 maybe if I knew more about the time period, Ravel + his contemporaries, and music in general it would be a more interesting read...?

A sweet, sad, turbid little book about a sweet, sad, turbid little man.
