Andrea Delfin TrendKitaplar Kütüphanesi

Tarafından yazılmış kitap Tarafından: Paul Heyse

This book's primary thesis is that the Marquis De Sade is the father of modern feminism. For the uninitiated, De Sade's works are infamous for their depictions of sexual humiliation and cruelty. We get the term 'sadism' from the sex practices he fearlessly explored. Against all expectation, Carter supports this seemingly absurd thesis in a way that is lucid, reasonable, insightful, and even amusing. It seems there is a gift for women in Donatien's mad sensual rebellion, after all. I have struggled for some time in trying to review this book, simply because it is still beyond me how anyone could be smart and talented enough to propose something so outlandish, and then to make it seem the most natural thing in the world. Carter's observations on sexuality, gender, and pornography are as remarkable as Foucault's, with none of the meandering semiotics. Her ability to say precisely what she means, both evocatively and concisely never ceased to impress me. She also suggests that many commonly accepted aspects of feminism are not only narrow-minded, but counterproductive. For instance: she presents how the popular 'mother goddess' figure is just another way to entrap women into the role of 'baby factory'--even making them proud of their one-dimensional existence. Of course, she says it better than I. This book was roundly and vehemently criticized by high-ranking feminists when it was published. They could see no way that their plight could possibly be illuminated in the works of any man, let alone a man possessed of a perverse and dehumanizing sexuality. They were uninterested in looking for a commonality with someone they were so clearly superior to. Contrarily, Carter shows that when we are able to connect ourselves to those we instinctively draw away from, we can move further from our narrow selves and closer to humanity. How can a movement seek to move beyond mere gender definition and call itself 'feminism'? Would we call a movement to erase the delineation between rich and poor 'povertism'? If the goal of feminism is to remove the discrepancies and prejudices between the sexes, why not name the philosophy after the goal instead of the conflict? 'Humanism' always sounded good to me. Carter likewise desires to reach beyond barriers, refusing to accept a strict delineation between smut and philosophy. Her willingness to search for insight in the last place expected makes her first unique, and second, revolutionary. It is all too sad that modern sexual theory is still far behind the mark Carter set, it's current vanguard having neither the imagination nor the daring to match her, let alone excel beyond her.

Benim Adım Agüero - Tom Matt Oldfield TrendKitaplar Kütüphanesi

Tarafından yazılmış kitap Tarafından: Beyaz Balina Yayınları

This was a gripping, and impossible to put down book, and I devoured it like I was starving. (Hah! I've always wanted to say that in a review!). Seriously, this Manson Family-like book was a fantastic tale and I loved it.

Tarafından yazılmış kitap Tarafından: Elips Kitap

I love books that make me go - "WOW!" This is definitely a book you need to read more than once to get everything. Magical Realism is so fun to read when it's done well. Murakami is a fantastic writer and I can't wait to read more of his books.

Küçük Prenseslere Masallar-Kolektif TrendKitaplar Kütüphanesi

Tarafından yazılmış kitap Tarafından: Yapı Kredi Yayınları

Highly overrated. It's really not that titillating or engrossing. Enough about your father the cop and the seriously unfunny hijinks with your brother. I skipped about half of this drivel. If I were Jenna's editor, I might question the chronology of some of this. I suspect some huge liberties were taken here. Nice to know she lived around the corner from our old apartment on Dickens Street, though!

There is some great stories in this volume including Tell Tell Heart, The Pit and the Pendulum, the Black Cat, and The Fall of the House of Usher. All 4 of these stories made the volume 2 collection for me. Give this one a whirl if you have time.

This book is both compelling and gut-wrenching at times...the characters are engrossing and you are imagine yourself in their position...such a good read.
