And why did we meet at Långbro Värdshus? Because it is the restaurant that is closest to the geographical center of the pathos trio – and we all had to bike about 20 km to get there. Krister biked north-west, Anders south-west and Ola south-east – there are divided opinions about who faced the most uphills and the strongest headwind...
Anders got something to chew at the meeting – the, by Norstedts, rejected book "Siris Djurrim", written and illustrated by Ola's daughter Siri, who at 5 had come further on her literary path than any of Patos members...
Book 62 - "Morgonstjärnan" by Karl Ove Knausgård (2020)
Krister 2 - The first three quarters are five points. The last quarter is one. Pity.
Ola 4 - Top class writing combined with stories that suck you in. In the side tracks, however, he loses some momentum in this book...
Anders 2 - Neither Knausgård nor Auster manage to hold it together when it comes to novels, although that is when they are at their best. First 3/4 epic, last 1/4 poo sausage.*
Average rating - 2.67
* Anders had folded a dog ear on page 1!
