Hersenschimmen
Hersenschimmen | J Bernlef
3 posts | 7 read | 7 to read
Maarten Klein verliest langzaam maar zeker zijn greep op de werkelijkheid. Hij kan heden en verleden niet meer onderscheiden, wil plotseling weer naar zijn werk en ziet zijn echtgenote voor een vreemde aan. 'Achter me in de deuropening staat een vrouw. Haar bruine haar valt met een lok schuin naar rechts over haar voorhoofd. [...] Ze houdt me in de gaten.' Meer nog dan een verhaal over dementie is Hersenschimmen een liefdesgeschiedenis, met een overmijdelijk tragisch einde.

#BookReport 04/22

Just one lousy book this week. Have been playing card and board games with my friends and daughter all week when I wasn‘t working. That was fun but I definitely can do with some reading!

BkClubCare Yay for playing games with friends! I have a family that rarely wants to do that. Books, of course, are necessary! 3y
squirrelbrain How nice to play games! How are you all doing? 😘 3y
TrishB Sometimes a little distraction is good. I love board games. 3y

Cinfhen I love a good board game!!! My son E is OBSESSED with board games but the rest of the family would rather be on their devices😬 3y
BarbaraBB @Cinfhen I like them too at times, although I prefer card games. I just got your email. Will reply soon and wishing you strength 🤍 3y
BarbaraBB @squirrelbrain Thanks for asking. We are doing okay. A week at the beach with friends definitely helped! 😘 3y
BarbaraBB @TrishB Yes I loved the distraction and being with a group of friends felt so good! 3y

This is the first book I bought with my own money in 1988. It was and still is the best book I ever read about dementia. I cried when I read it as a girl and I did when I reread it for my new bookclub. Organized by The School of Life, we‘re gonna read the six favorite books of six Dutch authors. This is the first (chosen by author Lale Gül) and it‘s a great concept. Again, all the stars ⭐️ ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

#WeeklyForecast 03/22

I‘m having an emotional week. My mother in law passed away unexpectedly and we‘re arranging her funeral, to be held on Thursday. For comfort I‘ll reread one of my favorite Dutch books (tagged) and we‘ll be doing our Divers #buddyread, Cindy 💕
Nothing too ambitious except maybe for In the Freud Archives, which I am reading at the moment for the #NYRBBookClub. I‘m reading it slowly and so far am really enjoying it.

Reggie I‘m so sorry to hear about your mother in law. 3y
