Harika bir hikaye! Nasıl olduğunu bilmiyorum, ama Nick Hornby'nin kadın karakterleri inanılmaz ... banliyö yaşam mücadelesine büyük bir bakış sunuyor.
klasik - Bu bir kütüphane bulmak oldu ve Huston hızla benim en sevdiğim yazarlardan biri haline geldi ... alt doğu tarafında vampir dedektif, üst kabuk vampir sendikası, ortak granola vampirler ve münzevi vampirler ile uğraşırken zombi enfeksiyonunu izler ... açıklamamdan çok daha iyi
İkiz kuleler. Sevdim. Tolkien'in ince bir mizah anlayışı var. İnanılmaz.
3,5 yıldız - Bu benim ilk Virginia Woolf kitabım ve başlangıçta zorlanıyordu çünkü hikaye etrafta zıplamaya devam etti, ancak içeri girdiğimde, yazarın tüm insan duygularına sahip olduğu anlayışın derinliğine hayran kaldım. Yazarın akıl hastalığından muzdarip olduğunu duymuştum ve sonunda hayatını iddia etti. Akıl hastalığı onun için ömür boyu süren bir mücadele olsa da, sahip olması gereken daha derin duygu hissinin bu kitaptaki alışılmadık perspektifleri oluşturduğunu hissediyorum. Bayan Dalloway kesinlikle ilgili bir karakterdi.
First in a series We actually listened to this starting on our drive back from IL Another strong minded, red-haired heroine More gore than some, but all my kids handled it well Giant talking snow leopards! Nice historical references Nice character development Nice exploration of cultural mores But, also true that my kids liked it more than I did
I first read this book in 8th grade, in my english class. I remembered enjoying it, being fascinated in how the author painted the picture that I really was reading Charlie's journal by use of spelling, grammar and punctuation related to the level Charlie was at when writing the entries. What I didn't know at the time was the people who created the text book I used felt it was okay to chop whole chapters out of the middle of the book. They felt pulling out whole sections was okay in the name of protecting children from "bad" concepts like sex, alcohol, and violence. They didn't consider that perhaps leaving the story intact and waiting for the children to mature before handing them this story was a better route. I discovered this injustice when I was in a used bookstore, and remembered this story I read in class I enjoyed, so I dug up a copy and bought it. When I got home, I jumped right in and started to reread it, only to get a shock in the middle of the book where suddenly there were whole chapters about this neighbor Charlie gets involved with that I didn't remember. When I reread the book more recently, there were more things that I realized would have been chopped out of a version intended for 8th grade students to read, and I just hadn't noticed as much the first time reading the complete copy because they were tucked in with the more mundane things towards the beginning of Charlies developments. All ranting aside, I find this book to be a fascinating look at human nature, personality and development. It's well written, and does a good job placing you into Charlie's head as he goes up and down through this experiment. If you read it in school like I first did, do yourself a favor and buy or borrow a complete copy of the book to read. The lessons learned by all characters in the book certainly give you lots of think about your own behavior and that of others. EDIT: There have been a few comments pointing out that the story was a short story first, likely the version I read in my school textbook, that was later expanded into the novel. I only wanted to add this note to my review, as it seems some people comment without reading the other comments left, so I'm seeing both comments informing me of this fact and comments of outrage that the book was censored.
The first time I ever fell in love with a character in a novel. Sid Halley is a wonderful combination of courage, savvy, boldness and vulnerability.
Sorry to say that this book was, in my opinion, overrated. Very little about the essence of the era.
The Illustrations were done in watercolor. It's a story about farm animals that like to cook.
