BOOKS AND SISTERS
Die drei Bände der Outline-Trilogie von Rachel Cusk sind die Bücher, die ich wahrscheinlich am häufigsten verschenke, weil sich fast alle auf sie einigen können. Ihr Schreiben ist klar, klug, atmosphärisch und zeitlos schön.
Was meine Schwester und ich sonst noch so lesen, gibt es ab und zu auch hier: booksandsisters.
