Joel e le lettere d'amore

Reviewed by Christina Tsichlis for TeensReadToo.com SHADOWS IN THE TWILIGHT by Henning Mankell is written using the distinctive voice of the main character, Joel.

В „Кучето, запътило се към далечна звезда“ Хенинг Манкел ни запозна с Юел и всички, които са били докоснати от неговото среднощно бягство несъмнено ще продължат да следят с интерес живота на хлапето от скованата в лед шведска провинция.

I picked up this Mankell work, expecting a cop story...author must be working on career broadening because it just isn't the usual Mankell. Readers accustomed to Kurt Wallander will find this book lacking much of his trademark suspense...boring. Don't think that I'll do another in this series.
