Piko hat Kudos: A Novel von Rachel Cusk besprochen
Quick and entertaining read
4 Sterne
An author is on a tour through europe promoting her novel. She meets writers, literary agents, journalists, and other people, and talks to them – but it seems that she is a very good listener, so even in the interviews of her the interviewers talk about themselves and tell their stories and their thoughts about life and art.
It's the third of a trilogy, but I didn't read the two predecessors yet...
In the first half, there seems to be a underlying theme of neurodiversity which sadly disappears in the second half. I would have loved to in the end have her revealed as neurodiverse – maybe it is too subtle and I just didn't notice it. I found the ending not as good as the person who wrote the blurb.
