    “I was reading it while hanging out with an ex-girlfriend. I may go back to it one day. Didn't impress me that much... I read about half.”

    “have to agree that the book is great. cannot tell what emotional impact it has one a male reader, but it did nave an emotional impact on me.
    i read it two years ago and am still thinking about it. one's got to have some courage to read more books by coetzee after this one.”

    “Is this book a 'male' novel, in the tradition of kelman, sillitoe, storey etc? I just have the impression that this has more 'emotional' impact on the male reader, despite the main atrocity revolving around the raped woman. ”
