Lange gab es keinen neuen Eintrag in meinem Blog mehr. Das hat sich heute geändert, denn ich habe dort eine lange Rezension zum Katzenporträt-Buch "Masha - Mein geliebtes Monster" von Caleb Carr ("Die Einkreisung") verfasst #calebcarr #mashabelovedmonster:

The Alienist
By Caleb Carr

The hunt for a sadistic serial killer in 1890s New York.
The amount of research that must have gone into this book is incredible. Historical detail fills the pages, giving a level of realism that immerses one in another time.

Couverture avant

2024. Alors que le tentaculaire réseau mondial offre toujours davantage d'informations, l'ordre international est au bord de l'explosion... La présidente américaine a été assassinée et une photo du meurtrier diffusée sur Internet accuse formellement l'Afghanistan. Mais alors que les États-Unis ont lancé une violente guerre contre le régime de Kaboul, il se pourrait que la photo soit en réalité un montage... Pour Gideon Wolfe, professeur en psychologie criminelle, une personne aussi démente que géniale a pris le contrôle de la Toile mondiale et cherche à plonger le monde dans le chaos. Sa traque le conduira jusqu'à Malcom Tressalian. Nouveau Capitaine Nemo, celui-ci est prêt à tout pour imposer une nouvelle société : falsifier l'histoire ou, à défaut, tuer le temps…

Un conseil pour un #VendrediLecture un peu en avance ! À la lecture, on pense forcément à Elon Musk et ses héritiers... #Tressalian

"Le tueur de temps, Caleb Carr"
