This book surely deserves a place in my top ten. I love everything about it: the characters, the story and how it's written and described. There were any quotes in this book, which I will never forget, because of the fact they're so beautiful, emotional and cleverly invented. The film is also very good, but I liked the book more, cause those powerful quotes and beautifully written passages are impossible to shoot.
I've read this book three times; twice in German and once in Dutch. Although the Dutch translation is from a high level, I prefer the original in German. I always prefer to read a book in the original language.
