  • MediaDB / «And it’s written about you” Alina Bronski: download fb2, read online

    About the book: 2019 / You open the book. Reluctantly, of course. You start reading. Through force, of course - they forced me to do it at school. You make your way through a couple of pages, yawning, and suddenly... Suddenly you understand: this is all about you. Not just “similar to your life” or “reminiscent of your thoughts”, no! This is all literally about you. This book fell into the hands of 14-year-old Kim. In a novel by some Leah Erickson, everything is told about Kim: how her parents divorced; how the father found a new girl who is now expecting a child; even about how a classmate fell in love with Kim. And here’s the worst thing: in the finale, a classmate dies! She must save Jasper - he is a good guy and did not deserve such a fate. This cannot be done without the help of her best friend, the amazing and all-powerful Petrovna. The girls decide to take a desperate step - to find the treacherous Leia, who steals other people's lives for the sake of her books, and force them to rewrite the ending. Alina Bronski (born 1978) is a German writer of Russian origin, whose texts have been translated into many languages. She writes in German, and communicates with her children in Russian - and such an unusual “duality” remains in her prose.
