Insightful reviews

Suzanne: Verschrikkelijk boek lethe: My review for the R.I.P. Challenge #5: When I received it as a free book at the time, the only thing I knew about De grot (The Cave) by Tim Krabbé was that the plot involved drug smuggling. Not a subject that holds great appeal to me, and so the book sat unread on my shelf for almost 13 years, until I picked it up for this year's challenge.

I already knew from Het gouden ei (The Vanishing) that Krabbé is capable of writing a blood curdling thriller, but still I was surprised by the high ratings The Cave had received on Amazon, and looked forward to reading it.

I am glad I didn't read any actual reviews beforehand, because most of them turned out to be very spoilerish, and this way I could discover and appreciate the story and structure of the book for myself.

I think "thriller" is a misnomer here. The first chapter, in which a character whiles away the hours until a drug transaction is planned to take place, contains tension enough, but The Cave is actually more a psychological novel about destructive friendship, fate and coincidence, and ultimately very sad.

I didn't find it particularly enjoyable, nor do I intend to reread it at some point, but the last chapters were beautiful enough that they earned the book an extra star.

Thomas Janssen: Een sterk einde, dat mij destijds toch wel even na liet denken over het leven en de keuzes die je maakt.

Emiel: Tim Krabbé is de meester van de flashbacks. Met enorme levendigheid vertelt hij het verhaal dat aangeeft waarom het onontkoombaar is dat de personages in zijn boeken zijn beland waar ze zijn beland. wish dat is ook iets wat zijn verhalen typeert: het lijkt onontkoombaar dat de dingen gebeurd zijn zoals ze gebeurd zijn, het moest nou eenmaal zo zijn, en één kleine gebeurtenis, een fractie van een seconde, kan iemands hele leven wijzigen.Ook in dit boek komen deze dingen weer aan de orde. Egon is vrienden met Axel, de brutale jongen die alles krijgt wat hij wil, goedschiks of kwaadschiks. Eigenlijk wil Egon dit niet maar hij wordt meegesleept. Dat is een ander thema in het boek: de brutalen krijgen toch wel wat ze willen en degenen die zich netjes aan de rainy houden hebben daar veel meer moeite mee. Om een of andere reden kijken de mensen in de laatste categorie op een bepaalde

manier op tegen de brutalen, terwijl het maar de vraag is of dit terecht is.Een donker verhaal waarin je het gevoel hebt dat het "lot" continu op de loer ligt. En dat is voor de personages in dit boek zelden positief.

Tara: I simply accomplished this today. It used to be okay. I did fairly like how the writer introduced every thing jointly within the end.

Perrin Pring: a brief read, The Cave is a non-linear tale approximately how one second can switch the process a number of people's lives, forever. Disclaimer - The Cave is a noir story, so do not believe that acknowledged second is changing anyone's lives for the better.Written via a guy (Tim Krabbe), for what appeared to me to be a male audience, the Cave follows the tale of geologist Egon Wagter. the tale is informed utilizing varied situations from Wagter's childhood, maturity and so on. One could imagine the reader might get a greater photo of who Wagter is thru those bits and items of his life, yet i ended the ebook figuring out i did not particularly ever get to satisfy Wagter. For all the details Krabbe presents on Wagter, the reader is left short of more. possibly the reason is, this ebook is touted as a 'noir masterpiece'. Krabbe explains every little thing and nothing. Dark, yet engaging, i like to recommend this booklet to people who like a twisted secret that takes by no means leaves the shadows.
