It is very impressive novel. It seems just an animal novel but symbolizes very different events and characters. You can dream all events and animals while reading it. Espeacially it tells us people behaviours. You can see people under animals
The book starts with this sentence:
"It was a pleasure to burn!"
And I asked these questions;
Can you think of a more effective means of control?
Can you think of a more effective means of Well, me neither .
I didn't intend to start reading it. I really didn't. Somehow it seduced me into it.WOW AND I THOUGHT OKAY THEN LETS DO THIS!
This is a classic story that I believe everyone should read. Be careful that it is not a light hearted read though. This book is heavy if you consider yourself a progressive thinker. The ideas of society and government that are presented in this book are so painfully true that it's hard to believe that it wasn't written yesterday. You care for the
This is an unusual novel and not for everyone. A short (184 p) and intensely strange book by Nobel candidate Vesaas. Like nothing else I've ever read, I can't exactly say I enjoyed it, but I will never forget it, and as I read it I became increasingly aware of its literary 'credentials.' This would make a prime candidate as a set text for
It has been years since I've read a book by such a descriptive writer. He is rapidly becoming a favorite of mine. This book was recommended to me by one of friends from Russia “Dinara”
First of all, this book is over 800 pages, so I found it a little challenging to start because I didn't want to carry it around with me to read on the bus (too
It is a great book that makes for a very nice read. It's thought provoking, but in a way that when reading, you aren't burden with thoughts. The characters themselves are not just symbols or allegories or abstract thoughts. Instead, it's a novel that follows the life of a love-struck man as he wonders what really is the meaning of life. The book opens with an amusing foreword by a fictional personage. This forward is then rebutted by the author. The story then proceeds and we follow the life, and ultimately love life, of the foolish and delusional Don Augusto Perez. While Augusto is so shallow and simple that we begin to lose interest in him, he quickly is placed within many scenes and set up against many characters who have great presence, humor, and style. There is both gentle and biting humor. The book switches into an even higher gear when its modernist jokes and sensibility are brought into focus by the arrival of the author. Unamuno argues with his fictional creation Augusto, and the two engage in repeated back and forth discussions and arguments about fiction, the novel, reality, the responsibility of the author, Augusto's identity, and so on. This continues right up to the final pages of the novel, at which point the question of who is in control still seems an open point.
There is great humor, playfulness, serious intent, patience, compassion, and earnestness mixed into both books. This, above all, is what I would suggest makes the book of interest to a general, ambitious, and adventurous reader. It's such a charming book, and I would recommend it to anyone interested in expanding their library.
This was a tough read. If you care about women, it makes you want to cry out for them. A friend of mine from Ireland lent me his copy of this book and the first question I asked him was, was it good? He said, yes, and it is definitely thought-provoking. As soon as I finished reading another book for a book club, I picked this one up and finished
4/5 stars (%78/100)
I've read the book many years ago in Turkish. I had to read it again because I am taking an art course. I was surprised by the fact that I've missed many important points in my first reading.
You'll realize that the book is extremely autobiographical when you read about Joyce's life. Therefore, in a sense, this is a book that explains how Joyce himself became an artist. As it is quite obvious from the title that the book is essentially about being an artist.
Our protagonist is an Irish boy named Stephen Dedalus. (Yes, the great craftsman Daedalus and the father of Icarus.) The book seems to be a bildungsroman too. We meet a very young Stephen at the beginning of the book and in the end, he is an adult. The time in the book is somewhat vague but you can understand that it covers about 15 years. (5-year-old Stephen to 20ish)
Yes, the book is about being an artist or what it means to be an artist. However, it is also about growing up and discovering an identity for yourself. Being in a household where everyone is Catholic, (especially Stephen's mother) Stephen is highly "interested" in religion. The biggest obstacle for Stephen on his way to being an artist is religion. Chapter 3, especially, deals with Stephen's ideas about religion and art.
Overall, it is a great book discovering your true self and chasing your dreams. If the thing you really want to do requires sacrifices, then you have to do it. Bravo, James Joyce!

I've waited more than 2 years for this series to finish so that I could start it. Thank god the last issue was released exactly 1 month ago.
I have to say it is a very good start. I am glad we get to see Rorschach and Ozymandias this early on. Also, Mime seems to be a very interesting character as well. I will definitely read it more as the comic really has a mysterious tone that makes you want to read more.
