Tehlikeye 3 Yolculuk - Aslı Der ücretsiz kitap indir

Osama Gaber osama_g_ahbc9e — I know Lois, love her dearly, and believe she writes truly of her experiences. It was through following her journey, which involved so many events which could not take place in my current reality, helped me realize how we can each live in separate realities yet meet and communicate in a common space.

Marco Rodrigues _orco — FANTASTIC collection. I will be checking out more by Michael Swanwick for sure!

Emil Tang uifire — Number two in my recent Malcolm Gladwell spree. Enjoyable as always, though I do find I go on binges of authors I enjoy and begin to regret it after a while... sort of like being 3/4 of the way through a pint of ice cream and you just finish it because you already ate 75% of it, but you would have enjoyed it a lot more if you'd waited until the next night. I've done the same thing recently with Kazuo Ishiguro and Haruki Murakami. I think the vast majority of authors really only have books in them that are variations on a theme. That's why I'm so impressed with Zadie Smith (3 very different books) and David Mitchell (3 similar books and a new book that was very different [black swan green:]). At any rate, Gladwell uses this book as his plea for rational problem solving: if people are making the wrong decisions, then we should change the circumstances in which they make decisions and not mandate that they make different decisions. The best example of that idea was the problem of women in world class orchestras. Having noted that there were very few women in major orchestras and many talented female musicians, and rather than mandate that 50% of spots in orchestras go to women, most major orchestras have instituted blind auditions in which the conductor hears but does not see the musician. After a few years, the problem was solved. Extraneous information was removed and the correct decisions were made. A valuable lesson. Again, I'm glad that Malcolm Gladwell plays a significant role in the public discourse.

Kasper Sonesson kasperson — Finally decided to read some Updike, now that he's gone. He is a wonderful writer, with beautiful descriptions of small town life and domestic relationships. The story is depressing and full of despair. One wonders what readers from 1960 thought of this novel, with it's male character who leaves his wife and the pregnant wife who drinks. I want to read the other Rabbit novels to find out how Rabbit fares later in his life.
