Liderlik Eğitimi-Thomas Gordon TrendKitaplar Kütüphanesi

Tarafından yazılmış kitap Tarafından: Profil Kitap

Epic in scope, Life and Fate tells the tales of a couple dozen characters during the Battle of Stalingrad. I went in with high expectations, having heard the book described more than once as the best Russian novel of the 20th century. It's a good book, but I don't rate it as the best. I certainly do understand why the Soviet authorities found it dangerous - Grossman doesn't pull any punches when describing the awesome power of the state, whether that state is Nazi Germany or Soviet Russia. If you need a satisfying ending in a novel, you'll be disappointed. The book is very much a slice of life thing - we get to the end of the book, but many of the stories are not at their ends. Obviously, those characters who met their ends during the battle or in the gas chambers have their stories end, but many other characters are simply in transition (from defensive to offensive, or from freedom to imprisonment).

I had Jesse’s copy from home and he had bought another copy while in Cambridge. We read this together and managed to have several cool conversations both during and after our reading. What to say? Such gorgeous language. I think I’d been intimidated by this book, might have started it years ago and set it down. It was gripping from the first page. Stories within stories; endless twists and turns in the storyline. Noted frequent use of portmanteau words such as: his head backflung; while the slowspitting and squatting men watch her covertly; in a room lighted by a bugswirled kerosence lamp. Interesting use of repetition of specific words; intricate character development. Need to read more Faulkner! Connection of beginning to end. First paragraph: Sitting beside the road, watching the wagon mount the hill toward her, Lena thinks, ‘I have come from Alabama: a fur piece. All the way from Alabama a-walking. A fur piece.’ Thinking although I have not been quite a month on the road I am already in Mississippi, further from home than I have ever been before. I am now further from Doane’s Mill than I have been since I was twelve years old. The ending: “’Saulsbury, Tennessee’ and I looked back and saw her face. And it was like it was already fixed and waiting to be surprised, and that she knew that when the surprise come, she was going to enjoy it. And it did come and it did suit her. Because she said, “’My, my. A body does get around. Here we aint been coming from Alabama but two months, and now it’s already Tennessee.’”

I didn't like the first book as much as I enjoyed the movie but I wanted to read it anyway cause I love the movie - the characters were much more superficial and I couldn't relate to Bridget as much. The story about her mother was pretty crazy - totally unbelievable - they tamed it down for the movie. Anyway I thought I would try out the 2nd book thinking maybe the character had grown some but she was still just as bad and annoying and her friends were worse - being married and a mom I was really annoyed at the way her friends treated and talked about their married friend who had recently had a baby. I just couldn't find the humor in it and they were all just totally not likeable. The only character I did like was Mark Darcy who had some funny dialogue. I also enjoyed some of the interview with Colin Firth altho Bridget just comes off as such an idiot. I didn't finish this book cause I just had no sympathy for Bridget and just couldn't relate to her. I didn't love the 2nd movie based on this book as much as the first movie but it was a vast improvement on the book. In the movie you can sympathize with Bridget a lot more and her quirks are endearing not completely annoying.

Atatürk Hangi Takımı Tutuyordu? - Süleyman Bulut TrendKitaplar Kütüphanesi

Tarafından yazılmış kitap Tarafından: Can Çocuk Yayınları

I totally fell in love with the characters in this book. David Nicholls did a superb job with his character development and I felt that both Emma and Dexter were very complex. Mr. Nichols insight into both the male perspective and the female perspective was spot on and I was impressed at the complexity of the relationship between them. I laughed and I cried through the book and at the end felt as if I were losing two friends.

I can never decide how I feel on the "is this true in spirit even if it isn't her completely true experience?" issue. It's kind of like reading the Bible--you have to be able to accept that truth, oddly enough, has a bit of gray to it. I was deeply affected by Menchu's tale, I will say that much. I simply wish she had thrown a disclaimer in there somewhere ("Okay, okay, not all of this happened to me, but be sure that everything in here happened to someone. The brutality is true, even if the details aren't"). Aside from that, it must be said that I found the writing less than extraordinary at points, but I still learned quite a bit.

Yitik Bir Aşkın Gölgesinde - Mehmed Uzun TrendKitaplar Kütüphanesi

Tarafından yazılmış kitap Tarafından: İthaki Yayınları

Having a bit of an obsession with 'ghost trains' I must admit that I was initially drawn to this book because of its title. Upon discovering that the trains in question were taking the author through a large chunk of the former Soviet Union (Eastern Europe, Central Asia, and the Trans-Siberian), I immediately knew I needed to read it. It was a good book, mostly entertaining, incredibly well-written, and exploring a ridiculous number of locales, many of which (such as Turkmenistan and Myanmar) are rather difficult to visit. To be honest, I am not particularly interested in traveling to India or Southeast Asia. As such, I wasn't as interested in Theroux's travels through these areas. Unfortunately for me, they filled the bulk of the book. (However, his writings from the beginning of the book through his time in Vietnam were excellent, and would, no doubt, be of great interest to those interested in the areas through which he traveled.) By the time Theroux reached Japan, however, he seemed to be burning out. This is certainly understandable, given that he'd been traveling for months overland by that time, but unfortunately, it affected his writing. His stories of Japan seemed to focus mainly on their obsession with manga-porn, and grew rather boring. I skimmed through them, eager to get to his chapter on the Trans-Siberian. And yes, it was only a chapter. Roughly equal in distance to his journeys of the first 400 pages of the book, the Trans-Sib netted only 30 pages. I had hoped, from reading the back-cover blurb, for a Trans-Sib trip involving numerous stops along the way, exploring the various cities along the way. Instead, the Trans-Sib was merely his transport home, a disappointing (to the Russophile) week of travel-weary train confinement. Conclusion? The first 400 pages are excellent, and would especially be appealing to those interested in India and/or Southeast Asia. Those interested in travelogues from Central Asia or Russia should stick to Colin Thubron.

Çipiti ile Fanzilla - Catherine Rayner TrendKitaplar Kütüphanesi

Tarafından yazılmış kitap Tarafından: İş Bankası Kültür Yayınları

I have always had a dread fascination with the demise of the Romanov dynasty, most especially with the Crown Prince and mysterious Anastasia. For a YA novel (which I don't read much of these days, I'll admit) I enjoyed this a lot more then I thought I would. Written from three different points of view (which I found a little distracting because only two were absolutely necessary) Anastasia, Anne, and Ethan (Ethan's point of view could have been left out or combined with Anne's honestly). I think the average teenager would enjoy this mix of action, history, and Russian mythology. Russia's royal family is protected by a secret brotherhood of magicians. When the Tzar and his family are herded down into the basement as sheep to the slaughter, the brotherhood magically compels the infamous, misunderstood Baba Yaga to save the youngest daughter, Anastasia. Ethan, together with Anne, must find a way to save Anastasia, and themselves from certain, mounting danger.

Şaka Makinası Efe Bacaksız 2- Tutmayın Beni-Nancy Krulik TrendKitaplar Kütüphanesi

Tarafından yazılmış kitap Tarafından: Beyaz Balina Yayınları

** spoiler alert ** An earlier reviewer claimed that non science fiction readers will approach Yu differently. If we assume that this bifurcation is appropriate, I should be placed into the “you didn’t grow up reading Douglas Adams” category. Indeed, my only experience with time travel through artistic narrative/fiction was seeing Primer on a second date. The Linus Skywalker/pop culture allusions and clever quotations caused me to categorize the book prematurely and incorrectly. For example, Yu writes, “In order to qualify as a protagonist, a human must be able to demonstrate an attachment coefficient of at least .75. A coefficient of 1.00 or above is required in order to be a hero.”Funny and not too heavy, right? After reaching the 50 page mark, my overall enthusiasm for the book waned and I would have abandoned Yu if it wasn’t already listed on my GoodReads currently reading shelf. Yes, posting a book serves as a reminder/prompt/source of agony. Though, I will never ever finish Miranda July’s book. ;) I digress, though. Reading beyond the fiftieth page results in an unexpected exploration of immigrant culture, socio-economic issues, dysfunctional families, and metaphysical musings. While it’s not my favorite book, I found the rest of the novel a quick, enjoyable read.

Şirinler - Sonbahar Komedisi - Pierre Culliford TrendKitaplar Kütüphanesi

Tarafından yazılmış kitap Tarafından: GNR Kitap

This was a very fast read, and not really in my genre. I thought the book was interesting, but a little campy at times. The story was overall, easy to follow, and though it dealt with outer space, seemed to capture what the main character, Arthur, would really feel like after the events in the beginning of the book. There are a few other books in this series, and I'm not sure I'll read them, but I'm glad I tried out the first installment.

OK so the movie is actually better because of the edit they did to make it movie length, cut out all the extra awful stuff that was in it. I did enjoy it despite the jumping from one perspective to another very frequently. the time frame changes were also a bit tricky to follow. But i did read the whole thing. :)

Yüksek lisans öğrencisi olarak insan deneyimini ve travmasını, güç yapılarını ve istismarını, dil ve bilginin ajans / manipülasyonunu bölümlere ayıran birçok teori okudum. yada yada. Bu kısa kitap, kültürümüzün dehşete karşı duyarsızlığını ortaya çıkarmak için soyut terminolojiyi ortadan kaldırıyor. Sontag'ın düzyazısı, doğrudan ve sınırsız, okuyucunun Hiroşima, Nazi kampları ve soykırım gibi geçmiş travmaya aşinalık duygusunu ortadan kaldırıyor. Bununla birlikte hafif bir şey olduğundan emin olun.
