lancefestivalen's review against another edition

4.0

Jag kan vara sval mot klassiker. Om alla tycker att det är bra, tycker jag ofta tvärtom. Men det är omöjligt att läsa den här och inte förstå varför den värderas så högt.

Det är inte så mycket en roman eller ens berättelse så mycket som det är en skildring av ett sinnestillstånd. Det viktiga är inte vad som händer utan att det händer.

Bakhålls utgåva har ett efterord av Christian Ekvall. Det är lika läsvärt som Hemingways roman.
