Jr Ryan creativeheat — I recommended the Modern Library Series printing because it has a really nice forward that gives an uninitiated Jacobs reader some background as to why she's so amazing. Back in 1961 when Jacobs first wrote this book, she was already a wipsmart critic of architecture in big bad NYC. She was a pioneer of urban diversity and humanistic management of cities. Even though Death and Life is over 30 years old, it is still so relevant to our rapidly expanding urban communities. I think it's especially vindicating (in an unfortunate way) to see that the cities who applied her basic model of urban planning (Vancouver BC for example) have thriving downtown communities, whereas cities that haven't are failing miserably (Seattle, WA) in the sense of having a truly viable, livable urban center. I gave this book only 4 stars because it's at times difficult to push through some of the more mundane (but necessary) data.

Mohammad Prasetyo akatsuki_n560d — When I picked up Hotel on the Corner of Bitter and Sweet to read last week, I figured I would finish it in a day or two. It was going to be quick filler while I waited for my book club book to arrive in the mail. The book is not very long and I had heard such good things about it. It turns out that every time I sat down to read this week my eye lids would get heavy and within minutes I would be sound asleep. It took me a full week to read it. This, however, should not reflect poorly on the book. In fact, it turned out to be a blessing because this is a book meant to be savored. Hotel on the Corner of Bitter and Sweet is Jamie Ford's debut novel. I've been hearing about it for awhile and I added it as an after thought to my amazon book order a few months ago to get my cost up to $25 for the free shipping. (This was just before I found out how to get Amazon Prime for free.) Henry is a twelve year old Chinese boy living in Seattle and attending a white school on a scholarship when he becomes friends with Keiko, a Japanese girl who is the only other non-white in the school. They work together in the cafeteria and develop a close friendship as they try to ignore the taunts and ridicules from their classmates. It is a sweet relationship but also a forbidden one. For it is during World War II. The Japanese are hated and even American citizens who are Japanese by descent are suspected of being spies. Also, Henry's father hates the Japanese and Henry has been restricted from associating with the Japanese. Henry and Keiko continue to grow close even as the Japanese, including Keiko's family are rounded up and moved into internment camps first in the fair grounds near Seattle and eventually at a camp in Idaho. Henry, in love, promises to wait. This novel is fabulous! It is beautiful, sweet and bitter (the title is perfect), romantic and emotionally stirring. I adored the characters and even though it is often easy to scoff at adolescent love, their feelings are strong and their reactions completely believable. The setting, characters and plot weave together so perfectly with Ford's style to create a subtle masterpiece. It is also, for my more sensitive friends, completely and refreshingly clean. I'm anxious to discuss the multiple themes and facets of this book, so don't be surprised if I start forcing everyone I know to read it. You'll thank me.

Salah Shaheen salahshaheenz — La hipóstasis del héroe Siguiendo las referencias del psicoanalista Otto Rank, descubrimos en el núcleo de las subjetividades heroicas el drama de una enfermedad muy temprana que lo penetra todo. Lo que vuelve hacia sí a los héroes, carismáticos y profetas, es el recuerdo sufrido en silencio y, posteriormente, efectivo, de una total hipóstasis ("subsistencia incomunicable"). Antes de reflexión alguna, la vida se da en ellos como dolor total indistanciable. Al héroe no le duele en especial ninguna parte de su ser, sino todo. Ahí no hay situación que no sea desesperada. El motor de la formación del Yo heroico es la total autoexaltación desde el total hundimiento en el océano del desamparo. El héroe es el hombre que viene del mar de la desesperación y echa pie a tierra. Con él empieza la aventura de la civilización como colonización de la tierra firme del Yo, el morar y entronizar en el nuevo continente: propio arbitrio, poder, querer, saber. Por eso, los héroes son los pioneros psicológicos de la cultura; talan la jungla de la impotencia y la confusión. En retaguardia de los primeros héroes, fueron posibles hombres que, por vez primera, tenían la certeza de poder aprender, de manera rutinaria, lo que en su época es propio de las posibilidades humanas. Desde ese punto de vista, los héroes no son simplemente sujetos de fuerza con nombres sonoros; su Yo no es sólo un anexo de su energía. Mucho más que eso, los héroes con toda su fuerza no son otra cosa que héroes del ser-Yo, paladines de la autoexaltación del saber y de la conquista del propio nombre. Por eso es siempre protagonista la heroicidad mítica: porque su razón de ser es la primera lucha contra una primera derrota. Y sigue siendo, aun sofocada, mi lucha, tuya, suya, nuestra y vuestra. Es tan universal porque la experiencia de la desesperación en la hipóstasis impuesta afecta incomparablemente más que los casos de abandono, mortíferos y patentes, de lactantes a la intemperie hostil. Peter Sloterdijk, Extrañamiento del mundo. Ed. Pre-Textos, 1998.
