Robinson Crusoe - Original Gold Classics - Daniel Defoe ücretsiz kitap indir

Ger T gdtaricoad77 — The author is a well-known graphic designer who has produced some of the most recognized and unusual book jackets in contemporary fiction (i.e. Jurassic Park). His work is said to transform a book from a medium for written words to a thing in itself, an 'object of art, as well as literature.' In his own book, Kidd continues to blur the line between art and words. The Cheese Monkeys follows an art student through the first year of state university. Anyone who has endured a freshman year at any college will identify and laugh out loud at his encounters with students, faculty, and bureaucracy. It is deep and funny. Some say it is an argument for a certain philosophical interpretation of graphic art. (Message over Form?) Of course, that discussion is both over my head, and beyond any field of study I ever endured. I just think it is a fantastic, fascinating look into academia, art, and the off-beat people usually found in both. Many reviewers don't care for the spiraling, out-of-control ending. I actually think it might be central to the book. Anyone who has pulled an 'all-nighter' (or two) may identify with swirl of real, and perhaps imagined, events leading to the crash ending. The build-up of tensions throughout the book are not unlike the high-intensity days and weeks of cramming and sleepless nights before the end of the term - sometimes ending well, sometimes not, but almost always filled with self-induced melodrama, angst, and a feeling that things will never be 'normal' again. (Or maybe I just spent too long in school ;)) I know after reading this book, I will never look at commercial art or advertising images the same way ever again!

Zack Mccollum _ack_c_ollum — I enjoyed this story immensely. It was very similar to the movie (Goldman wrote both the book and the screenplay), but I have to say I think I liked the book more, even if by just a little. I also enjoyed the fact that Simon Morgenstern, the supposed original author, does not actually exist. I read the entire book wondering just what the original version was really like, only to find after completing the book, and doing a quick google search, that Goldman invented Morgenstern. I think I like the book even more for that. This is a quick read, and a funny one. I recommend this book.
