Narrative Concering Books Schloß Gripsholm

Um den Berliner Sorgen zu entfliehen, verbringen der Ich-Erzähler und seine Geliebte, »Prinzessin« Lydia, einen mehrwöchigen Urlaub auf dem wunderschönen schwedischen Schloss Gripsholm. Besuch aus der Hauptstadt von Lydias Freundin Billie bricht die romantische Zweisamkeit auf und es entspinnt sich, auch in erotischer Hinsicht, ein sommerlich-zartes, reizvolles Spiel einer Liebe zu dritt. Erst als sie gemeinsam ein kleines Mädchen aus einem tyrannisch geführten, nahe gelegenen Kinderheim befreien, wird die verträumte Leichtigkeit ihrer »Idylle auf Zeit« empfindlich gestört. Die Begegnung mit Angst und Unterdrückung ruft sie ins wirkliche Leben zurück.(Amazon)

Light, but not shallow. Oh, not shallow at all. And some incredible surprises for a book written in the

What a lovely, gentle, spirit raising little book! It's actually more of a four-star-read, but I feel generous after reading. So let's give it five.The author and narrator tells of a summer vacation, which he spends with his girlfriend Lydia. The year: unknown; late in the Weimar Republic, when the world was still halfway okay. The place: Gripsholm Castle, Mariefred, Sweden.Five carefree weeks in which nothing happens besides swimming in the lake, talking, eating, drinking, lounging and sex.

such a classic. always fun to revisit.

Lots of wry casually silly humor, but always hinting toward something sinister about the world beneath the surface

forced myself to finish it. in the beginning some fun observations and the Plattdeutsch is charming, but the social justice part made the story almost insufferably boring and predictable to me.
