Über diesen Titel

A taut, psychological mind bender from the best-selling author of I’m Thinking of Ending Things.

We don’t get visitors. Not out here. We never have.

In Iain Reid’s second haunting, philosophical puzzle of a novel, set in the near future, Junior and Henrietta live a comfortable, solitary life on their farm, far from the city lights, but in close quarters with each other. One day, a stranger from the city arrives with alarming news: Junior has been randomly selected to travel far away from the farm...very far away. The most unusual part? Arrangements have already been made so that when he leaves, Henrietta won't have a chance to miss him, because she won't be left alone - not even for a moment. Henrietta will have company. Familiar company.

Told in Reid’s sharp and evocative style, Foe examines the nature of domestic relationships, self-determination, and what it means to be (or not to be) a person. An eerily entrancing pause-resister, it churns with unease and suspense from the first words to its shocking finale.

After "I'm thinking of ending Things" expectations were high. Sadly, "Foe" is a big let down. It was pretty clear where this was going from the beginning (the audio book description also has somewhat of a spoiler in it) and the Story Just did Not make Up for the Lack of suspense.

What a let down

Ein Fehler ist aufgetreten. Bitte versuche es in ein paar Minuten noch einmal.

There is hardly any suspense because the twist becomes so painfully obvious after the first quarter of the story. The dialogues sound artificial and forced, the protagonist's internal thoughts are incredibly dull. Bad

the basic idea seems promising
