разочаровал старик. скомканно, сдвг-стиль рассказа, больше поняла из рецензий и пересказов, чем из самой книги. списываю на плохую редактуру из-за посмертного издания

Obwohl der Aufbau stellenweise etwas verworren wirkt, beeindruckt die enorme Spannweite von Graebers Idee. Es ist meine erste ethnologische Lektüre, und ich muss zugeben: Das Buch lässt sich nicht immer leicht lesen. Aber wie viele Erinnerungen an piratische Bücher, die ich als Kind gelesen habe, es doch ausgelöst hat! Ob die Argumente des Buches wirklich überzeugend sind, darf man bezweifeln – doch eines schafft es auf jeden Fall: den Wunsch, Madagaskar eines Tages selbst zu besuchen.
