His book, Les Bienveillantes, which I am currently rereading (first time was library book, I hurried through it, at approx 150 pp per hour, can barely remember anything) has had a testy reception in Germany

Many critics all but spit on it. It did not do justice to the Holocaust, it used too many of the old cliches etc etc

Well, well. what about you?
