The Help - Người Giúp Việc Thư viện Sách hướng dẫn

Sách được viết bởi Bởi: Kathryn Stockett

In the early part of the book, Morrison has this lovely scene on a train, where she connects the history of Black people migrating with the love two characters have for one another. It is a beautiful scene of love, not to mention that Morrison is at the heights of her talents as she describes the journey these two characters take.

Sách được viết bởi Bởi: Michael Ende

British novelist Paul Torday is a retired businessman who launched a successful second career when he published the bestselling Salmon Fishing In The Yemen (2007). His follow up, The Irresistible Inheritance Of Wilberforce (2008), proved popular as well. The former was a comedy, the second a tragedy. His third is something like a horror story. The author has a knack for creating a sense of unease in his narratives, and The Girl On The Landing is his darkest effort yet. It is also his most uneven – now that he is an established author, his editor seems to have gone light on him, resulting in awkward patches of prose and even simple spelling errors. But for all its flaws, this slow-boil thriller certainly keeps you turning the pages. The novel initially reads like a mix between Gothic fiction and a study in British upper-middle class ennui. Our protagonists are Michael and Elizabeth, a wealthy, middle-aged married couple who take turns narrating the chapters. Theirs is a dull marriage, to say the least. Elizabeth, the only child of a fickle father, was drawn to her husband precisely because of his mind-numbingly boring stability, though even she had doubts before accepting his proposal: “On the one hand, could I really face spending the next forty or fifty years with a man whose idea of an adrenaline rush was playing bridge at his club?” As the novel opens, they are dutifully visiting acquaintances at their country estate in Ireland – Michael and the owner are members of the same conservative London gentleman’s club. Going down to dinner, Michael notices a small painting hung along the corridor. The painting depicts a staircase landing, and he thinks he sees a figure of a woman in green in the background. Later that night, his dog is afraid to go past that spot in the corridor. The next day, when he re-examines the painting, the woman is no longer there. Elizabeth notices that Michael starts to change after the trip. Once meek and mild, he becomes bold and moody, telling off an irritating houseguest. He also periodically utters mysterious things like “Lamia”, which he later does not recall saying. Then, Michael – or “Mikey”, as this improved version is dubbed – becomes a lot more fun and passionate. Surprising his wife with kisses and romantic gestures, he gives their 10-year “workable” marriage an unexpected renaissance. On his part, Michael starts encountering a mysterious woman dressed in green. The weather becomes wild and violent at night. Walking among the hills of his childhood estate, he is suddenly “seized by a feeling of horror, as if something from the outside had come into the world”. It is slowly revealed that Michael has a disturbing past of “behavioural problems”, which he himself has been made to forget until now – one with more than a touch of madness. This is more than a novel about schizophrenia, though. The overall Gothic mood is aided by an interesting concept – that there are other ways for an individual to perceive the world, one that would be perfectly suitable in another society, but not ours. As a doctor told him: “You know, it’s your bad luck that you are probably an evolutionary misstep, or sidestep. Your brain chemistry has reverted to that of the very earliest hunter-gatherer, before a social brain became the evolutionary path forward... In any case, I can’t let you out into the community as you are.” The story climaxes with a series of unfortunate events, startling revelations and a creepy, if hackneyed wait-for-the-sequel ending. But it is testament to the author’s powers of storytelling that this is one book you may not wish to read as you sit alone on a rainy night.

Exceptional book. I couldn't put this book down. This book does a great job of portraying the dynamics of family relationships after a tragedy, of sacrifices, kindness, lost oportunities, and the things that help shape a destiny.

Another book of knitting culture humor from our dear Yarn Harlot. I loved it, but I have to admit that I didn't think it was quite as hilarious as her previous books. This might have been because the "travel guide" format, while very fun, was a bit of a stretch at times. Still, it was great. I'm impressed by the way that Steph has used different formats for all of her books so far, and I'm curious to see what she does next. (But I'd rather another book of hilarious essays, say, than something less funny that's in another format just for the sake of something different. Not that I'm saying that's why this one is in this format, but I'd be afraid of publisher pressure to make her do something different every time.) Knitters should definitely read all of Steph's books, and this one would be particularly good for non-knitters who live with or are otherwise closely associated with knitters and want to try to understand just what the big deal is about this knitting thing.

Fantastic addition to the series. Jeaniene Frost brought back all the favorite characters and produced an action packed, thrilling story while still being able to make me laugh one minute and cry the next. It might be my favorite so far, but it is so hard to decide since the whole series has been consistently wonderful. A very satisfying ending but I can't wait for the next book. If you haven't listened to an audio book before, treat yourself to this series. The narration is spectacular and is even better listened to than read.
