Reviews
“Regrettably, there is (..) no closeness to the reading audience, the characters do not seem unsympathetic, but also not so interesting that one would like to take more interest in their fate. If then, in addition to the speculative attempt to approximate the language of the time, stylistic mannerisms such as the accumulation of adjectives go hand in hand, you lose interest in reading. "
