Besprekingen
De legende van Colton H. Bryant door Alexandra Fuller
De figuren in dit boek komen niet echt tot leven. Het leest echter gemakkelijk. Het gaat over de manier waarop Amerikaanse oliebedrijven bij de boortorens omgaan met de veiligheid van hun personeel, slecht dus. Het berust op de werkelijkheid, dat geeft het boek een speciale dimensie. Het is een wereld die ik niet ken.
