TO READ
DONE
Found the dialogues unnatural and the mixed feelings quite offputting. The discussions of death and existentialism are great, however. Many quotes saved.
Pretty engaging, insightful for a children's book. I would say that it is more suitable for teenagers, even though the subject (rabbit life) might seem too tame. I didn't like the El-Ahrairah tales very much, too kiddy, but overall the story is, again, rich in topics quite adult. Some clever remarks and funny moments, too.
Of which I have read so far:
Very engaging!! The much appreciated topics are all here: the end of humanity as it is, its self-destructive tendency, the ways of preserving knowledge and skills. The middle part was not very memorable, I will admit. But damn I love brother Francis, I was devastated. A great read! Will re-read some time later.
