4/5 Stars (%80/100) The world's longest epic poem written by a single poet and oh boy it was long. It took me 23 days to finish it not because it is long but because I forgot that I was reading this book on my Kindle. I could not help myself but to compare it to Odyssey and there are surely a lot of similarities between two works. So, if you like Odyssey you will most likely love this one as well. I especially enjoyed the chapters related to Feridoun and his sons and also Rustem. Many chapters are actually related to Rustem, his life and his family. He is some kind of a protagonist in the book but the book in general deals with a vast time period. In general, I really enjoyed the book. Even though there are some parts that I considered boring, it is still worth your time.

Bir insan kitap okumuyorsa yalnızca hayatını yaşar, eğer kitap okuyorsa okuduğu kitap kadar fazla hayatlar, heyecanlar yaşar. Kitaba başladığımda ne kadar silik ve salak bir ana karakter kullanmış yazar diyecektim ki bir anda lafımı ağzıma soktu. 2. Dünya savaşı sırasında almanların esir aldığı mahkumu anlatıyor. Hemen aklınıza bir “life is beautiful” gelmesin arkadaşım ya da “piyanist” ... Öyle gaz odası, sabun fabrikası vesaire yok kitapta; otelde geçiyor mahkûmiyet. Elinde yalnızca eskaza temin ettiği satranç kitabı ve muşambası olan bi “Adam”mımız var. Yalnızca bir kitabı olan bu mahkumun, son mermisi ve sayısız düşmanı olan asker misali “mermisini” kafasına sıkmasıyla olaylar cereyan ediyor. Güzel, keyif aldığım, neden 2-3 cilt değil dediğim kitap. Şiddetle tavsiye ederim.

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!

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

Tomorrow, and tomorrow, and tomorrow, Creeps in this petty pace from day to day, To the last syllable of recorded time; And all our yesterdays have lighted fools The way to dusty death. Out, out, brief candle! Life's but a walking shadow, a poor player, That struts and frets his hour upon the stage, And then is heard no more. It is a tale Told by

The Call of the Wild! It is a world-classic and we all know that. it is a world-classic because Jack London is an excellent writer. It is page-turning book that you will finish it in one sitting and moreover if you have not read the book, make sure to do so in 2019. I guarantee that you won't be disappointed. It has thrills, chills and spills. Thrills as in thrilling chases; chills as in chilling icy weather and spills as in dog fights to the death with spilling blood. The story is about a dog called Buck. He is kidnapped from his comfy farm life with the judge and is thrown on a train. He finds himself enslaved with some terrible men until he ends up sold to the government as part of a courier service in Alaska. He quickly has to learn to adapt to the harsh environment and the pecking order between the existing dogs. He barely gets anything to eat and is constantly abused into submission. Finally, he is auctioned off after completing three legs of an impossible journey to a small group of inexperienced mushers. Forced to carry ultra-heavy loads and getting even less food leaves Buck wondering if there's something more for him. Then he meets John Thornton and my heart expanded three sizes. You will think about these sayings How Rebellious! How delicious! This story made me happy. It left me in peace. This is reason enough to read the story.
