Sevgili Efendimize Muhammedi Dua ücretsiz kitap indir

John Martin johnjustic3c02 — I finished this book a few days ago, and have spent the time reflecting that it is in many ways a perfect novel. This is one of those books that gets better the more you think about it. As many reviewers have noted, Margaret Atwood tells us the same story in three different ways (or four, depending on how you count them): (1) Newspaper clippings describing events, (2) Iris Chase Griffin's memoirs in her last years and (3) the story The Blind Assassin, in which an anonymous man tells a science fiction story to his lover. These narration are interwoven throughout the novel. All three of these types of narration have strengths and weaknesses, and while all three are describing the same era and events, the impression we get of the characters is vastly different. None of them tells a complete story. The reader is forced to guess and fill in the blanks throughout. Ironically, we discover that the news clippings, perhaps the most objectively "true" are in fact the least accurate versions of what occurred. In many ways, the fictional story The Blind Assassin is the most accurate telling of history. Strikingly, the portrayal of Iris herself in these narrations varies the most. Her passivity makes her a remarkably un-interesting character - except that she isn't nearly as passive as we might believe. I'm not sure if we can ascribe her passivity to "the role of women at the time" - certainly Atwood has commentary on the subject, but Winnifred Griffin Prior is also a woman of the time and she is certainly not a passive participant in her life or in others'. Thankfully for the story, Iris is in fact complex, complicated, and dynamic - and a great narrator. I've also been pondering the story The Blind Assassin and its significance to the novel as a whole. Is Iris the true Blind Assassin? Is she more like the sacrificial, tongueless girl in the story? What is the significance of the various endings to the story that are played with? I will have to re-read this with these questions in mind. Of course, Atwood's brilliant style shines within this structure. I have been a fan of hers for years, but somehow did not get around to reading this one before. She picks apart the English language in digressions, implements turns of phrase with ease and cleverness, and sucks you in. And although she tells you the ending in the first 2 or 3 chapters, she still manages to surprise and shock. What more can you ask for?

Giusi Orlando _iusi_rlando — Excellent. Also read in September 1992.

David Greenburg dpgcreative — quite the domino effect with this story! start with one thing and end on a totally different one... yet it stuck to its core perfectly... i was skeptical at first because i was assuming it'd be just another love story... but it definitely wasn't! at least not the love story i was expecting... and, although it might take a day or two for it all to sink in, i think i might walk away with something unspoken from this story... for just randomly choosing this book off a shelf as a "filler" to get me through until the books i had just ordered arrived, i was pleasantly surprised...

Alessandro Descovi descovifb16 — I saw Ramiel reading the fifth sequel to this book, and I asked his opinion on the series and he liked it. So, I decided to give it a try. My initial reaction to this book wasn't good because I couldn't really understand the prologue and there were specific terms only to this book(such as Craftmaster and Fiefdom). But, after reading about 50 pages I was starting to get interested in the plot. The main protagonist in this book is Will. I think he is a very interesting character because he is like me small in size and he really isn't confident in himself. From the beginning, Will had really wanted to join Battleschool and become a knight, like his father(whom he had never known). When he is rejected by the Battlemaster, he is surprised when he gets invited to be an apprentice of another Craftmaster. He was chosen to be apprentice of Halt the Ranger, who is confident that he has skills and talent to become a ranger. I really enjoyed this book and it had me turning page after page from all the action. I would recommend this book to people who like fantasy and action. My next read will be its sequel, The Burning Bridege.
