The autobiographical novel, describing Sylvia Plath painful ordeal when she becomes mentally ill is such a book.
This is a disturbingly frightening journey through the mind of a young girl suffering from depression in the 1950's. How far we have come in the last few decades in recognizing depression as a mental illness and treating it with much

Ancestor of all novels, novellas, short stories, plays, films and more which deal with the theme of quest/adventure.
I like reading Ancient Greek and Roman writers and I probably have read everything from Aeschylus to Euripides to Sophocles to Seneca to many more. But I have never ever read anything more beautiful than The
I first read Great Expectations when I was thirteen years old. It was the first of Dickens' works that I'd read of my own volition, the only other being Oliver Twist, which we'd studied parts of in school. You know, I missed out on a lot when I was thirteen. I favoured fast-paced and gritty stories and didn't understand the love for Austen (later

This is review is about "The Magic Barrel" not the other stories in the book.
Leo Finkle is a bright young man studying to be a rabbi. He is so focused on his studies and cannot spend any time on other things. Someone suggest to him that he should get married via a matchmaker. He chooses the matchmaker Pinye Salzman, but he is a shady guy with mysteries.
At first, the story seems to appear as a quest to find love but it quickly turns into its roots once more: find your faith and believe in God. However, in the story, finding God and belief is through humans. Through relationships between humans and love one can discover God’s love. As we have seen in the story, it is not easy and it will not come without a hefty price. Leo himself does not even realise that he is in need of love. He wants to get married in order to find a bigger congregation.
After his interactions with Salzman, he realizes just how lonely he is and how much he needs Stella’s love. The story is also about Salzman’s unhappy life as he disowned his own daughter and works as a matchmaker. When you think about it, it is ironic that faith can only be found through love from a woman, something worldly. Therefore, I put this title (To Believe or To Live, the title of my essay) to emphasize that you cannot completely have both: you either choose belief and turn to God or you choose to live with love in this world. In any case, the story is more than what it seems. It is not only about love or faith.
I wanna write my review about this book. But I wanna write another thing at first. I really liked this book. According to me, in general, such kind of level books can’t give you feelings. (If you are bookworm, you’ll understand what I wrote.) It was third book which really gave me feelings. While I was reading this book, I felt like I was reading

Sexing the Cherry
Postmodernism has become an important part of our life and culture in many ways. Although it is a very common word in today's world, it cannot be expressed as a complete definition. Postmodernism is known for its rebellious approach and willingness to test boundaries. It is an indisputable fact that the word ‘master narrative’

First, I wanna provide a brief summary of the book then I will share my comments on it:
Humans defeated famine, plague and war (starvation, epidemics and violence)
Humanities new targets are immortality, happiness and divinity by using artificial intelligence, big data, biotechnology, genetic engineering, regenerative medicine
Beginning Watercolor
It is a first step book to begin watercolor. There are a lot of information about watercolor painting: brush types, beyond brushes (using salt, spray bottles, masking fluid, palette, paper towel, toothbrush, plastic wrap, and even a sponge for creating distinct impressions), color schemes and also building techniques step by step so that one can learn watercolor from scratch to painting landscape or human body.
When I first started to learn the watercolor painting, I began noticing the color transitions, delicate details that were there all the time but I haven't seen any of them. As I come to understand; to see things in detail, one should draw.
THE BEAST AMONG US
Personality is a set of characteristics that the individual has and distinguishes the individual from others. In psychology, personality has been studied from many aspects and theories have been established on this subject. Sigmund Freud that forms the basis of all theories has been studied over the concepts of id, ego and
Reflections of social issues of modern people in the play “A Doll's House”
It seems that just surviving and sleeping with a full stomach are not the main problems of developed civilizations since the first formations of societies. ‘Surviving in a good condition’ is the key for modern women and men and death is mostly ignored or perceived as an end from a scientific point of view. Social status, economic level of
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

Considering that Bodkin published in 1934, it is very impressive that you can still use it in many ways. I had to read this book because I plan to use it for my thesis and I admit that it is a difficult read, especially for a Master's student. Yet, I learned a lot of things and I am sure I'll quote many things from Bodkin as it is a good point of start in archetypal literary criticism. However, there were parts when Bodkin went on and on and I often felt lost as not all of the book will be useful to me. After many days, I am glad I am done with reading but I'll still come back and check certain things. Overall, it is a good source for people who study archetypes and even more useful if you are also interested in poetry.
"You are my antithesis, Luella. You are the queen of life.”
“And you are the king of death,”
The elves come for two things:war and wives. In both cases, they come for death.
Three-thousand years ago, humans were killed by some races have wild magic skills. But, later the treaty was made. For centuries, Elves have taken a young woman from Luella’s village to be their Human Queen.
Nineteen-year-old Luella is a healer in her town Capton. The Elf King chose Luella as his wife, and as a Human Queen of Midscape. Luella should learn how to control powers she never expected to save a dying world that is a land filled with wild magic.
I read the first book of Air Awakens series by Elise Kova. And while I’m searching author’s other books, A Deal With The Elf King caught my attention. I really liked it.This is inspired by Beauty and Beast, Hades and Persephone myth.
I really liked Luella because she is clever and stubborn in addition to her sense of humor. I loved Eldas. The relationship between Eldas and Luella was slow, they knew each other slowly and then falling love with each other. So I recommed A Deal With The Elf King. I’m sure you’ll love it.
