Eines meiner Lieblingsbücher von der Scheibenwelt, jetzt vorgelesen weil das Kind im richtigen Alter dazu ist und etwas "Lustiges und Ernstes" wollte. Eignet sich hervorragend zum kapitelweise Vorlesen und hat die richtige Mischung aus Ernsthaftigkeit, ein bisschen Grusel, Witz und Spannung. Die Übersetzung ist gelungen, wobei ich finde, dass man den Nac Mac Feegle einfach ihren Namen hätte lassen können. Als Einstieg in die Scheibenwelt jedenfalls sehr gut geeignet.

I mean, pretty soon I'll be taking my digital watch, grapefruit spoon set, Kwan Yin statue, Kitchenaid, some paintings, an extension ladder to reach coconuts, a few close friends, their favorite things and people, and before you know it the island will just be too crowded. …

Mas me forcei a sair do meu transe pós-livro para aproveitar esse sentimento e transportá-lo para um texto.

Tem um tempo que não leio Pratchett. Desde Mort, que li ano passado (outro primor de livro que não cheguei a resenhar aqui).

Para variar, Terry Pratchett me arrebatando com seu brilhantismo e lucidez sobre o que é ser uma pessoa nesse mundo. Leio os livros de Discworld desde a adolescência, mas nunca li todos os quarenta e dois volumes. Sigo nessa missão, e acho que no dia em que terminar, vou ficar bem triste por não ter nada novo desse universo para ler (sim, eu sei que tem ainda os …
