Như Chốn Thiên Đường Thư viện Sách hướng dẫn

Sách được viết bởi Bởi: Julia Quinn

I adore this book. Yes, adore. Twenty Prose Poems (or, if you must, Petits Poemes en Prose) is a 70-some page book, and half of it is the French originals. When a friend passed it on to me more than a month ago, I thought I'd devour the thing in a day or two. But it turned out that my usually voracious appetite for reading only wanted one, maybe two prose poems a day. And not because they are particularly dense, or difficult, or dull--in fact, just the opposite. I enjoyed each one of these strange little genre-hybrids so much that I didn't want to dilute the experience by gulping it too fast. I wanted every bite. In a letter, Baudelaire wrote that he was aiming for nothing less than "the miracle of poetic prose, musical but with neither meter nor rhyme, supple enough and rugged enough to lend itself to the lyrical movements of the soul, to the undulations of reverie, to the jolts and spasms of conscience?" Bold, Mr. Baudelaire, very bold. And accurate. Such ambition did nothing to stifle his a sense of humor--evident just from his titles, which range from "Get Drunk!" to "The Soup and the Clouds" to "Let's Beat Up the Poor." Baudelaire's got a love of wordplay and a taste for epiphany. The doubleness manifested in his very genre--prose poem--finds constant textual echoes, from his scathing remarks on hypocrisy to his sight for the strange oppositions alive in Paris in the mid-nineteenth century. I was particularly struck by the image at the end of "The Double Room" (natch): "Yes! Time rules now; he has returned his brutal dictatorship. He pushes me, as though I were an ox, with his two-pronged goad: 'Move on there, beast! Sweat, you slave! Live, convict, live!'" It seems that he had originally intended to write a set of one hundred prose poems, but these twenty were written over a long span of time, and while some were published during his lifetime, it wasn't until two years after his death that they were collected. But thank god for that.

Những Câu Chuyện Hay Giúp Trẻ Trưởng Thành - Lòng Biết Ơn Thư viện Sách hướng dẫn

Sách được viết bởi Bởi: Thanh Thanh

I took a few days after finishing The Dark and Hollow Places to collect my thoughts before writing this review, because I'm conflicted about it. I loved The Forest of Hands and Teeth, and while I wasn't a huge fan of The Dead-Tossed Waves, I still had faith in Carrie Ryan and the world she's created in these books - because there is so much that is fantastic about it. I think, though, that the problem is there is so much focus on love, falling in love and desperate emotions that it makes the actual terror take a back seat. Yes, it's still there and prominent, but as a reader, I was so caught up in who loves who and how they are going to be together that it was easy to discount. It wasn't that way in The Forest of Hands and Teeth - there was actual DEATH in that book to a main character, there was heartbreak, there were circumstances that molded Mary into a strong woman who pursued what she dreamed of. Between Gabry (who plays a secondary part in The Dark and Hollow Places) and Annah, I did not find much of that strength at all. I appreciate the message that Carrie Ryan was trying to impart, beauty is not just skin deep, and the emotional issues that can result due to guilt and betrayal, but it just didn't work for me the way the first book did. That is disappointing - because I had such incredibly high hopes. I just felt that this and the previous book went a little too far off the probability (well, as probable as a zombie book could be) with immunity, hot air balloons and several "near-death" circumstances.
