Comments on: Review: The Double Life of Alfred Buber by David Schmahmann http://luxuryreading.com/alfredbuber/ Read With Us! Wed, 16 May 2012 21:50:24 +0000 hourly 1 http://wordpress.org/?v=3.3.2 By: Na http://luxuryreading.com/alfredbuber/#comment-51437 Na Sat, 06 Aug 2011 00:07:06 +0000 http://luxuryreading.com/?p=7905#comment-51437 I think the fact that it was written as a memoir to his daughter is a wonderful thing. It might be even more intimate because of this. Alfred's life seems both intriguing and also confusing as the case of anyone with a double life. Though, I think I will probably get too confused reading it and adding to it a seemingly colourful life I likely won't appreciate the story. Thank you for the review.

I will most likely pass on this one as well but I will continue to read reviews and see if it grows on me :). Thanks for the well written review!

Unless the book is truly remarkable I would rather read something more straight forward. I am getting too old to want to add more confusion to my life. I am glad that you enjoyed it enought to give it a four. Thank you for your review. CarolNWong(at)aol(dot)com Think I will pass, confusion and a unsympathetic main character are what did it for me.
