this is the one of the best pieces of art I have ever encountered.
The story and the writing is incredible, but being new with comics, what struck me most were his manipulations of the sketches and drawings. The stories tell us about the 7 Endless — Destiny, Death, Dream, Despair, Desire, Delight (sadly, we are told about her changed form — Delirium), and Destruction. The Sandman, is Dream — Morpheus.

Oh, here we go again. Another book by Fredrik Backman. I just can’t find the right words to explain how this author makes me feel. He makes me feel frightened, peaceful and sad at the same time. I can’t keep a straight face whenever my hand reaches for one of his books. I swear that i have never ever read books of any kind like his. Every time i

It’s hard to say that the book was covered all the necessary things about childhood trauma. It contains just bunches of small and unconnected pieces of information about the trauma situation that has been going through the entire life span. I mean, there are not enough (almost nothing covered ) information about methodology of the overcoming steps from childhood trauma. It is better to watch just youtube video which is uploaded by the author.

John Barth is the most important postmodernist novelist and his works of art fiction and reality somehow is complicated. It becomes difficult to decide which one is real and which one is fiction. Blurring and uncertainty is so immense that sometimes it is problematic to understand what is happening and what is going on this story. In the story we

A poem about legacies and death
In the poem, the statue of Ozymandias, the king of kings, lies decaying in a distant desert. Only the pedestal, two upright legs and a face, remains of his statue; the rest is shattered and buried under lone and level sands. Netiher his mighty power as a king nor his statue, his legacy, could withstand the passage of merciless time. This poem reminds me of the 76-77th stanzas of Hávámál, a collection of Old Norse poems about philosophy of life. However, these stanzas and Ozymandias are more like two sides of the same coin, they complete each other. They both give the message of "memento mori" (remember you are a mortal), and speak about leaving a legacy. Ozymandias does this by the statue of Ozymandias, the king of kings while 76-77th stanzas of Hávámál give this message through the experiences of common man; however, this time the speaker is Odin - the king of gods. The message, along with memento mori, is that immortality is only achieved through a legacy: through the tales of the one who lived and died; through the reputation they leave behind. Man is the legacy he leaves behind. Nothing more, nothing less. Although Hávámál presents legacies as more heroic, personally, I always thought about legacies similar to that of Ozymandias. Even the legacy, the statue, of King Ozymandias lies broken into pieces in a distant desert; forgotten and covered with sand. No matter how mighty and powerful you are, no matter what your title is, no matter how powerful your legacy is, time and death will erase everything. In the end, good or bad, nothing matters. Everything is doomed to be swallowed by the sands of time.
