Highly praised and loved by Neil Gaiman, the word-play and silly/seriousness is ideal for reading out loud to children. Make sure to read it will all the voices! ( ) It's obviously very silly but it has the decency to recognize itself as such. The 13 Clocks could be a master class on figurative language. Monsters and described monstrously, jewels are described jewelishly, killing time necessitates hours and seconds to bleed out onto the floor. It's an important detail too many authors completely forget. Why tell me that your beloved is like the morning sun when you can have her literally melt snow and provoke birds into song? I was so excited to read this book and the foreword and introduction added to that. Unfortunately I did not like reading it. There were a few funny moments ( I did think of Billy Crystal as the Golux) but not enough to make this story a comedy. There were also too many pronouns used in the dialog that made it difficult to tell you who was speaking. This was a disappointment. Sense ressenyes | afegeix-hi una ressenya
