Negative Positive
Title: Intense
Review: This book cannot be fully understood by reading it once. It begins and ends in Singapore, the country of birth of the writer, but in between the author travels a lot, also when she decides to live in the Netherlands. In the meantime she decribes politics, philosophy, music etc.etc. like a real cosmpolitan.The speed in this book is enormous, especially considering the fact that this girl has a tumor which disables her seriously. It is really striking that with all the pain she suffers and the sometimes humiliating aspects of her disease, she is still grateful of the time she has and there is no thinking of losing any of her pride. On the contrary, at he end she is living more intensely then ever. The love of her life helps her a lot in this.
