Zuletzt gesehen: Django Unchained

"Mal lustig, mal spannend, mal sehr plakativ romantisch lässt sich Django Unchained abseits der extrem brutalen Szenen so auch glatt als Entertainment mit politischen Überbau lesen. Als der Deutsche dem Amerikaner wegen Broomhilda alias Brünnhilde relativ knapp die Nibelungensage verklickert, wird es sogar ein bisschen erbaulich."

Zuletzt gelesen: Daniel Silvas "The Fallen Angel" (2012)


"Even so, his last few Allon novels have had me slipping away. They felt like lectures in political and geo-global responsibility. Bad thing? Overall not really they felt that sort of diatribe that demeans the reader. Trepidation led the way into The Fallen Angel: A Novel. This was the novel where we would either part ways or be back on track. We’re back on track." Die komplette Rezension finden Sie hier.

Zuletzt gelesen: Robert Harris' "The Fear Index" (2012)

"It’s an energetically researched tale based on one of the back stories to the crash of 2008: bankers’ hiring of physicists to devise hugely complex trading programs that few really understand, and those new strategies running dangerously amok. It’s also a familiar story of hubris and its fallout." Zur Rezension der New York Times geht es hier.

Des Rezensenten Frage "Is Robotham one of the tens of millions of people who are jaded and cynical and angry about the way the big banks brought the financial world to the brink of ruin, ...
committed transgressions that were, if not illegal, certainly immoral, took bailouts from the taxpayers and then walked away scot-free, acting as if they had nothing to apologize for?" könnte ich beantworten. Zur Rezension der New York Times geht es hier.
