Koniec pana Y

by: Scarlett Thomas (author)

2.00 10

Kiedy studentka Ariel Manto okrywa egzemplarz „Końca pana Y” w małym antykwariacie, nie wierzy własnym oczom.
Dostatecznie dużo wie o autorze tej powieści, ekscentrycznym wiktoriańskim naukowcu Thomasie Lumasie, by zdawać sobie sprawę, że to prawdziwy biały kruk. I, jak mówią niektórzy, powieść przeklęta. Wszyscy, którzy ją przeczytali, wliczając w to samego autora, przepadli ponoć bez śladu. Z powieścią pod pachą Ariel wpada w wir mrożącej krew w żyłach przygody pełnej miłości, seksu, śmierci i podróży w czasie.

text To be read more than once

I read the paperback version of this book (first in 2013 and again in 2019). I have never read a book where so much care was taken in its presentation. The edition I read had a deeper coloured cover. The edges of the pages were blackened and the paper scented in a way which promised arcane knowledge...

text The End of Mr. Y - Scarlett Thomas

There are some books that just swallow you up, aren't there? You just want to inhale as much of them as possible as fast as you can, and they kind of take over your life for a few days, and it's sad but also sort of a relief that you can go back to normal sane reading for a while. That was The End...

Some very interesting concepts, ideas and thoughts are explored throughout The End of Mr Y and generally I found it to be an interesting and entertaining read ....
