No hi ha cap discussió a Converses sobre aquesta obra.   BookyMaven | Mar 30, 2024 |   ) adrianburke | Feb 15, 2024 | This book is nuts but I loved it. Jumping from modern day back to the late 60s and early 70s to explore one man's life, family history and the people in his orbit. Great characterizations of a guy maybe in the middle of a personal crisis, a depressed guy hiding from life in a video game, a total airhead evil mastermind college girl, and many others. I think it's probably the most enjoyable book I've read this year. ( ) hmonkeyreads | Jan 25, 2024 |  ) ellink | Jan 22, 2024 | emmby | Oct 4, 2023 |
 All told, The Nix is not the most extravagantly awful critically-acclaimed novel I’ve ever read—that would probably be one of Cormac McCarthy’s or Don DeLillo’s howlers. It’s just not very good. The plot is a real mess, with contrived framing devices, jittery narrative focus, and little forward momentum. On a sentence level, Hill dutifully sprinkles unusual metaphors throughout his text in order to demonstrate that he is a serious literary stylist. PremisDistincionsLlistes notables
