Noioso, banale, un surreale ridicolo. Leggo di "senso dello humour incredibile", "una fantasia inesauribile"... Io invece l'ho trovato banale e strano in senso di svitato. Personaggi al limite del grottesco, noioso.
Con Tenth of December un po' ha mitigato certi lati troppo grotteschi, ma per quanto mi riguarda, difficile ne legga un altro. Non c'é due senza tre, ma non é questo il caso.

The last book written by Mr Saunder was defined as the "publishing case of 2013", uncountable eulogies, enthusiastic reviews. I must admit I didn't really like it, but I wanted to give him another chance. So, I started Pastoralia. Well, if I wanted to improve my idea, I wouldn't even open it.
Boring, ordinary, ridiculously surreal.I read about "amazing sense of humour", an unlimited imagination... in my opinion, it is common and weird. Characters lost in boredom and grotesque. In Thenth of December he mitigated a bit some too grotesque sides, but for me, it's absurd I will read another one by him. Good things come in threes, but this is not the case.
