Ægte brøker

by Jesper Wung-Sung

I Ægte brøker følger vi de to unge intelligente gymnasiefyre Marcus og Janus der har en drøm om at få folk til at stoppe op og tage stilling til deres liv i stedet for formålsløst at følge med strømmen. Drømmen leves ud og ender som det værst tænkelige mareridt.

Ægte brøker er en roman om at være ung og utilpasset. I den grad utilpasset. Om at leve med en fascination af døden der i virkeligheden er en dødelig fascination af livet. For hvad er meningsfuldt? Hvad er et ægte liv?

It was a little confusing

[Freja ☼ · Rating 2 out of 5]

This was the last book i was forced to read in public school, and that may be one of the reasons why i kind of dislike this book.

This book is very slow but then again, not slow at all. The most weird part about this book is the characters, because one of them is just plain psychotic while the other actually is pretty normal, of course, beside his homocidal thoughts.

The story line is also way to slow-paced, and it just makes the book kind of boring, because the storyline is actually an awesome idea, it was just not adapted to it's full potential.

But there is just some majorly weird dimension to this book, that makes me strongly dislike it.

The writing, though, is pretty freaking, amazing and i love Wung-Sung's writing style in his other books. It really is just this one book, as an exception, that is not my taste.

This is a very well written book, with a very important message.
The characters were very well written. Janus evolved immensely throughout the book, he went from a very lonely boy, who hated life to someone who finally had a friend and appreciated life.
Meanwhile we had Markus who did not evolve throughout the book, but we just got more information about him. Until the end when we had all his dark secrets.
The book was very realistic, the only thing that was unrealistic was the fact that it was so easy to get a gun. That would not have been the case in real life, since getting a gun in Denmark is a very hard task.
Overall I enjoyed reading this book.

Boring plot

Kunne godt lide brugen af anagram, forstærker hele bogens betydning

Wild and unique

This book is very special, has a lot of references to Ancient Rome and Greek mythology.

Very moderen and interesting, especially if you like psychology

Bad very bad

[Signe Lundøer · Rating 1 out of 5]

Deprimerende bog, som jeg desværre kommer til at glemme meget hurtigt igen. De to drenge er fascinerede af den ondskabsfulde romerske kejser Caligula, hvilket binder dem sammen. Men deres opførsel overfor hinanden fremstår lidt utroværdig og usammenhængende for mig. Den virker tilfældig. Begge personer irriterer mig, og plottet drager mig ikke.

Det er svært for mig at vurdere den her bog. Jeg kunne godt lide skrivestilen, men jeg blev så helt-i-låget rasende på de to hovedpersoner! Ih altså! Jeg fik lyst til at slå dem i hovedet begge to, men så lod jeg være, fordi de trods alt kun eksisterer på bogform.

Jeg kunne ikke helt følge med i personernes udvikling til sidst, jeg kunne simpelthen ikke forstå motivationen. Så der tabte bogen mig lidt.

Der var en lille teaser et sted, som gør, at jeg glæder mig ekstra meget til at læse Ud Med Knud nu. :)

I highly recommend this book! When I read it for the first time, I was a little confused at first, but after that I got started with the book,I really liked it.It does not take very long, and can easily be read again, which helps to understand it better!
