Ich bin regelrecht begeistert. So scharfzüngig, pointiert, witzig und zugleich souverän individuell geschrieben, dass ich dadurch Harry Rowohlt - Fan geworden bin. Muss ich unbedingt noch mehr lesen, eventuell mal die "Nicht weggeschmissenen Briefe". Rowohlts Anekdoten erinnern mich manchmal an Max Goldt, ohne dessen surrealen Einschlag.
(Sternchen Abzug gab's für das letzte Drittel, das statt der Kolumnen recht heterogenes Material versammelt und da nicht immer überzeugen kann)
