Combo Hành Trình 10 Năm Từ Cô Đơn Đến Hạnh Phúc Của Tác Giả Gào (Hộp 5 Cuốn) Thư viện Sách hướng dẫn

Sách được viết bởi Bởi: Gào

Ruy Castro's slim volume on Rio de Janeiro provides the casual reader a compelling portrait of that most intriguing of cities. Providing a rapid history of the city from the first Portuguese explorers to the celebrations of the dawn of the 21st century, he tells the tale of a city that has at times been the height of fashion, that has provided the world with at least its share of memorable movie scenes, more than its requisite portion of compelling rhythms, and a plentiful supply of legends, scandalous and otherwise. Seemingly influenced by the flaneur approach to writing on cities (though not adopting the majority of that form's conventions) and with the long memory that comes of living in and loving a city for his whole natural life, Castro gives plentiful insight into a genteel experience of the city. He tells how Rio rose over its first few centuries, and then fell into the same morose situation that afflicted so many metropolises through the Cold War years, a conflation of the effects of over-exposure that turned an exciting, exclusive experience like early Copacobana into the banality of over-exposure, and a structuralist approach to cities that sucked them of life. Alongside the allusions to many a scandalous encounter, there are nods to the less glamorous aspects of Rio's underbelly, but the favelas, the drugs trade and Brazil's notorious crimeworld are skipped over with only the scantest of mentions. Despite the vivid picture he draws, for all the talk of hypnotic rhythms, the book never quite grips the reader or imparts the carnival spirit on which its first half is almost entirely focussed. It may be that that detachment is telling of a divorce that has taken place between the Rio of legend and the Rio as experienced by a man who has lived through the city's awkward middle years and is still trying to work out a place in a new age, but it results in a less engaging book than one might hope this city would inspire. As a quick read, Rio is worth a look, but its not quite the mesmerising experience readers may be looking for.

Hệ Thống Lí Thuyết Và Phân Loại Bài Tập Vật Lí 12 Dưới Dạng Sơ Đồ Kiến Thức (Tài Liệu Sử Dụng Ôn Thi Tốt Nghiệp THPT Và Tuyển Sinh Đại Học, Cao Đẳng) Thư viện Sách hướng dẫn

Sách được viết bởi Bởi: Ngô Bích Cẩm

This homage to Dumas was an absolute joy to read. The "author," Paarfi of Roundwood, narrates events with a pedantic insistence. His longwinded style does not slow the pacing of the work, oddly enough. The tales of chivalry and courtly behavior, intrigue and romance, that form the basis for this great story leap off the page. You'll be quoting from this book for some time to come. "Well, you perceive how, in practicing, he strikes only at the air." "That is not unusual, when preparing for a contest" "No, and yet he seems to miss with every third stroke."

This is the first book I have read by Jodi Picoult. And I have to say "Wow"! What an emotional rollercoaster ride I took starting from the first page all the way to the last. There were times that I became so emotional that I had to put the book down to compose myself. I have two teenage daughters who are in high school. Although they are not tourmented by bullying they do come home daily and tell me about kids that are. My youngest, who is a freshmen, told me about a boy who gets picked on so bad that the kids dont even let him sit down during lunch. He stands in the corner by himself everyday. My daughter has approached him many times asking him to come sit at her table but he just keeps his head down and never answers her. I told her that maybe she should go to the principal and let him know whats going on and was shocked when she told me the principal is in the lunch room everyday walking around talking to all the students. And yes our high school, just as the one in the book has a no bullyiing policy. Now I am not saying that I condone what Peter did. What I am saying is this is a huge problem in our schools and something needs to change. I would love to see this book on the mandatory reading list in every school.

i liked this book more than i expected i would, after my disappointment with louise erdrich's fiction (see my review on "tales of burning love" for more). the characters' stories sometimes felt unresolved and cut short, but in a way that was not entirely unsatisfying.

I've enjoyed almost everything Peter Matthiessen has written except for this book. The strange minimalistic way that it's written just didn't do anything for me.

Sách được viết bởi Bởi:

Scathing satire. As in too many novels, the plot spins loose from its bearings by the end...but the privileged-if-well-meaning yuppie in me says, well, ouch.
