Novellsamlingar tycker jag är generellt underskattade.
Romaner fullständigt dominerar den skönliterära marknaden, och det är verkligen
inte ofta man (eller åtminstone jag) läser noveller. Men när jag väl får tag i
en novellsamling, brukar jag tycka väldigt mycket om den. Noveller har en
annorlunda dynamik jämfört med en bok på typ 300 sidor. En novellsamling som
jag älskade var A Twist in the Tale av
Jeffrey Archer. Boken innehåller 12 överaskande noveller som tar oss från
Nigeria till Toronto. Samlingen har allt från sorgliga livssituationer till
gulliga betraktelser. Mina favoriter är ”Clean
Sweep Ignacius” som handlar om en finansminister i Nigeria som är hård mot
korruption, och ”Just Good Friends”
där en katt berättar om sitt liv med sin husse. <3
Short stories, I think, are generally underrated. Novels seem to completely dominate the literary market, and it's not really often that one reads short stories. But when I do get a hold of a book of short stories, I realize just how much I love them. Short stories have a different storytelling dynamic, if you compare it to a novel of 300 pages.
A collection of short stories tht I really loved was A Twist in the Tale by Jeffrey Archer. The book contains 12 surprising stories that take us from Nigeria to Toronto. This collection has everything from sad situations to cute contemplations. My favorites of the stories is "Clean Sweep Ignacius", which is about finance minister in Nigeria who is tough on corruption, and "Just Good Friends", where a cat talks about his life with his master. <3
