Final Tyt Ayt Tarih Konu Anlatımlı TrendKitaplar Kütüphanesi

rec: um, oprah? read for the june booksmith bookclub I called kelly about 50 pages into this to apologize to her for giving this book to her for Christmas because, sure she likes the post-apocolyptic stuff, but dude. Depressing barely covers it. And she said it didn't get any more uplifting. There was a lot about the book that I didn't like-- I wasn't wild about the lack of quotation marks and contractions. The "man," "boy," and "he" thing works fine when the two of them are alone, but any time they came into contact with someone else, it got kind of confusing. Which may have been by intent-- it was certainly chaotic for the characters. Stil, it was occasionally difficult to read. And the story just kind of droned on and was vaguely repetitive. I was pretty sure I didn't like the book. But, I suppose the fact that I couldn't decide was telling enough and in retrospect, I think I loved it. The creepy scenes were really creepy and I'm kind of in love with that little kid as a character. Also, SPOILERS TO FOLLOW... So, I spent the ENTIRE book waiting for the inevitable ending where the man had to shoot his son with the one bullet to save him from the roving hordes of cannibals, so I was pleasantly surprised by the actual ending. Which, I actually think was a bit uplifting. I totally started bawling like a baby and kept doing so for several minutes after finishing, but still-- I like the idea that the kid got what his dad wanted for him, that there is hope that life can be better than death. It's a lesson I admit hoping is true most days. And I think that all along I was waiting for the end to decide how I felt about it and since it was the non-predictable ending that hit me emotionally, I went towards love.

I'm still a little in love with Atticus. He sticks with me as the ultimate in quiet heroes, and I adore the way he fathers his children. Scout is one of my favorite little girl characters. Ultimately, I think this novel manages to deliver a strong ethical message without being preachy or moralistic. I think this book belongs in my top 5. Oh, and I loved the movie almost as much. Read it again (for the fifth time). Finished just yesterday, and a few things seem different, when really it's just me. I'm different. I, for some reason, wasn't as aware of the use of the n-word any of the other times. It's shocking the first few times, but I'm southern, and it's honest, especially for that time, I suppose. I identified strongly with Scout when I read it as a girl, then with Atticus as a parent, and this time, for some reason, with Jem, who is trying to figure out how to be the young man he wants to be. I needed to read it right now, again. So many messages seem to be coalescing to point me toward a compassion that's difficult to embrace fully. It's me trying to tell me something, and me sticking my fingers in my ears. I think the message of tenderness and empathy and responsibility changed me when I read it as a pre-teen, and can still change me now, if I let them. I think the characters helped to show me that I could choose what I could be. It's much more difficult, of course, to be a consistent human than a consistent character in a novel, but I appreciate having the example. I want my little boy to see this movie and, when he's a little older, to read this book. He's already a better human than I am, but I want Atticus and Scout and Jem and Dill and Calpurnia to meet him and him to meet them. I wonder how young is too young.
