Ma poi le donne ce la fanno

Il luogo è una ricca e tranquilla cittadina nei pressi di Stoccarda. I personaggi sono: Marion, la moglie perfetta e noiosa di un sessantenne arricchitosi con le speculazioni edilizie che decide d'un tratto di tradirla con una giovanissima commessa di profumeria, a sua volta amante del figlio del sindaco; un'imprenditrice, pure lei lasciata dal consorte per una ragazza; la direttrice del canile municipale e della lega animalista locale, che finirà per farsi un sacco di soldi con un'improvvisa rivalutazione del terreno attorno al canile. Capitoletti brevi, una trama intricata e inverosimile da telenovela, ma anche ricca di notazioni socio-economiche e di costume, per un lieto fine femminista.

This book is not amazing but it was interesting! It describes the (crazy) ideas that middle aged man have to feel yonger and what their wifes do, to get back at them. The action takes place in Germany so most of them are quite conventional, others want to lose control and live a fuller life....
Read to find out how they do it.

Spassoso, irriverente senza ipocrisie o velleità culturali! Ogni tanto ci vuole!

All’inizio sembrava una chiavica e pensi 300 pagine così non le reggo, poi ti prende, resta comunque un libretto simpatico ma non troppo, senza pretese. Il Femminismo spiegato alle casalinghe.

This was one of the first books I read in this genre and I gotta say I have since read better. The main ML is not likeable at all. He’s an old rich guy who isn’t anything to look at but thinks I’m rich so why not dump the wife and get a hot young thing. I’ll also screw the wife over with my money at the same time. The FL, why does she go along with it? To get a sugar daddy when she’s in a relationship? Her own admission the guy does nothing for her so why go along with it?

Il primo libro della Hauptmann che non ho finito con sforzo. Ritmi serrati e parecchia confusione come sempre nei suoi romanzi, ma la storia e' piacevole e divertente, anche se un po' superficiale. Lettura leggera da viaggio.

This book will not win the Booker Prize but it's light, rattles along at a good pace and is laugh out loud funny in places.

Ein interessanter Roman, viel Abwechslung, was mich als Leser gestört hat, sind die verschiedenen Sichten. Ich wusste am Ende nicht mehr wer zu wem gehörte.

Ring di lettura. Incommentabile.
