Glitter og glamour, grådighet og gys. I denne boka får vi et gløtt bak forhengene til filmbransjen, og det er ikke noe pent syn, noe Coelho skildrer på en forbilledlig, men dog litt langdryg måte. Plottet er flott, historien gjennomtenkt og krydret av bittersøte betraktninger på hvor galt verden bærer av sted.
Jeg liker samfunnsrefseren Coelho som vi kan skimte bak de ulike karakterene.
Boka er vanskelig å beskrive, - litt belærende til tider, men høyaktuell når det gjelder temaer som skjønnhetshysteri, grådighet og menneskets drivkrefter.
Det som trekker ned er at historien er langdryg. Spenning mot slutten, det er jo tross alt en slags krimroman også, men den kunne med fordel vært litt mer komprimert uten at budskapet blir utydelig: vær deg selv! Terningkast fem, Coelho drar det hele i land denne gangen også.
Dette ble for lite engasjerende for meg.

Denne boken fra Coelho fenget bare ikke. Mulig fordi jeg hørte den som lydbok? Fant liksom ikke "tonen" med boka. Har lest det meste ellers av Coelho

Guds veier er uransakelige, og noen ganger kan man ikke se veien før man begynner å gå.

Å samle opp kjærlighet betyr lykke, å samle opp hat betyr ulykke. den som ikke får øye på døren til problemene, kan komme til å la den stå åpen, og dermed kan tragediene smette inn.

*Normal is: 1. Anything that makes us forget who we are and what we want; that way we can work in order to produce, reproduce, and earn money. 2. Setting out rules for waging war (the Geneva Convention). 3. Spending years studying at university only to find out at the end of it all that you're unemployable. 4. Working from nine till five every day at something that gives you no pleasure just so that, after thirty years, you can retire. 5. Retiring and discovering that you no longer have enough energy to enjoy life and dying a few years out of sheer boredom. 6. Using Botox. 7. Believing that power is much more important than money and that money is much more important than happiness. 8. Making fun of anyone who seeks happiness rather than money and accusing them of "lacking ambition." 9. Comparing objects like cars, houses, clothes, and defining life according to those comparisons, instead of trying to discover the real reason for being alive. 10. Never talking to strangers. Saying nasty things about the neighbors. 11. Believing that your parents are always right. 12. Getting married, having children, and staying together long after all love has died, saying that it's for the good of the children (who are, apparently, deaf to the constant rows). 13. Criticizing anyone who tries to be different. 14. Waking up each morning to a hysterical alarm clock on the bedside table. 15. Believing absolutely everything that appears in print. 16. Wearing a scrap of colored cloth around your neck, even though it serves no useful purpose, but which answers to the name of "tie." 17. Never asking a direct question, even though the other person can guess what it is you want to know. 18. Keeping a smile on your lips even when you're on the verge of tears. Feeling sorry for those who show their feelings. 19. Believing that art is either worth a fortune or worth nothing at all. 20. Despising anything that was easy to achieve because if no sacrifice was involved, it obviously isn't worth having. 21. Following fashion trends, however ridiculous or uncomfortable. 22. Believing that all famous people have tons of money saved up. 23. Investing a lot of time and money in external beauty and caring little about internal beauty. 24. Using every means possible to show that, although you're just an ordinary human being, you're far above other mortals. 25. Never looking anyone in the eye when you're traveling on public transport, in case it's interpreted as a sign that you're trying to get off with them. 26. Standing facing the door in an elevator and pretending you're the only person there, no matter how crowded it is. 27. Never laughing too loudly in a restaurant no matter how good the joke. 28. In the northern hemisphere, always dressing according to the season: bare arms in spring (however cold it is) and woolen jacket in winter (however hot it is). 29. In the southern hemisphere, covering the Christmas tree with fake snow even though winter has nothing to do with the birth of Christ. 30. Assuming, as you grow older, that you're the guardian of the world's wisdom, even if you haven't necessarily lived enough to know what's right and wrong. 31. Going to a charity tea party and thinking that you've done your bit toward putting an end to social inequity in the world. 32. Eating three times a day even if you're not hungry. 33. Believing that other people are always better than you--better-looking, more capable, richer, more intelligent--and that it's very dangerous to step outside your own limits, so it's best to do nothing. 34. Using your car as a weapon and impenetrable armor. 35. Swearing when in heavy traffic. 36. Believing everything your child does wrong is entirely down to the company he or she keeps. 37. Marrying the first person who offers you a decent position in society. Love can wait. 38. Always saying, "I tried" when you didn't really try at all. 39. Postponing doing the really interesting things in life for later, when you don't have the energy. 40. Avoiding depression with large daily doses of television. 41. Believing that you can be sure of everything you've achieved. 42. Assuming that women don't like football and that men aren't intersted in home decorating and cooking. 43. Blaming the government for all the bad things that happen. 44. Thinking that being a good, decent, respectable person will mean that others will see you as weak, vulnerable, and easy to manipulate. 45. Being equally convinced that aggression and rudeness are synonymous with having a "powerful personality." 46. Being afraid of having an endoscopy (if you're a man) and giving birth (if you're a woman).
