Expectations & disappointments
Es evidente para mí, y supongo que lo será para todos.
La vida no es más que eso." SETH
Como el último libro de Paul Auster, Travels in the Scriptorium. Supongo que ha sido culpa mía, que debería haberme dado cuenta después del medio horrible (digo medio porque aunque la primera mitad del libro es bastante buena la segunda es peor que lo del perro volador) Brooklyn follies. En fin, el libro en cuestión es original, adictivo, muy metaliterario, muy Auster de sus inicios, pero después de marearte durante 130 páginas te deja con las manos vacías.
Afortunadamente este fin de semana me ha salvado Kart Lagerfeld, un hombre sobre cuyo gusto musical tenía depositadas pocas (¿ningunas?) expectativas y que luego ha resultado ser un indie connoisseur.

The new Paul Auster book, Travels in the scriptorium, has been a bit of a let down for me. My mistake probably, 'cause I should have known better after the not-that-good-to-say-the-least Brooklyn follies. The book in question is original, addictive and quite early Auster in style (which for me is the best feature a new Auster book can have), but it lacks in content and concretion, and after 130 pages it leaves you empty-handed.
On the other hand there's this close-to-scary guy, Karl Lagerfeld. My expectations in his musical taste were less than low, but apparently he's an indie connoisseur.
