Karsten W. reviewed Ein Regenschirm für diesen Tag by Wilhelm Genazino
Review of 'Ein Regenschirm für diesen Tag' on 'Goodreads'
4 stars
In 2017 I visited an art exhibition about Otto Marseus van Schrieck, whose subject matter was mainly fungi, insects and spiders, amphibians and reptiles, especially snakes. He was the inventor of the motif "forest floor still life".
The book here, which I read three years later, reminded me of the exhibition. On the one hand I admire the detailed depiction of the small and numerous, on the other hand the subject makes me shudder.
