Beschreibung

Malin Forst is a precocious, devout twenty-year-old woman attending a Stockholm teachers' college in the 1930s. Confounded by a sudden crisis of faith, Malin plunges into a depression and a paralysis of will. Oscillating between poetic prose, social realism, fragments of correspondence, and imagined dialogues between the forces of nature, Crisis telescopes Malin's distress out into metaphysical planes and back, as her mind stages struggles between black and white, Dionysian and Apollonian, and with an everyday existence that has become unbearably arduous. And then an intense infatuation with a classmate reorients everything.

Did I get to reading this book because of yet another show? Sure. Will I reread this to put my mind at ease? Yes. I will be back here around summer, I guess. See I am rating this 3.5 Stars now because I know this book is better than what I would rate it right this moment. I was just extremely sensitive to noise and too overwhelmed by my surroundings to focus properly. People talking around and to me while reading absolutely did not help keeping me focused. Plus the fact that this book does not exist in German and the metaphorical/symbolistic language that appears so often really demands a different sot of attention from me. But a lot of the sections I do in fact remember I enjoyed a lot and they got me thinking. I do want to give this book the chance it deserves so I will be back, reading this in solitude and a focused mind and of course some tabs and a pen.
