While I enjoyed some of Nafisi's thoughts on the books discussed in this memoir, I wish it had been more about her life & her students lives & less about literary criticism.

This book has a very slow start, but stick with it and you will become interested in the characters' lives. A satisfying, if predictable, ending.

This book gives us Hornblower's first outing as a full Master & Commander of his own vessel, as a commander assigned to a sloop of war in the channel blockade. The novel takes place after the peace between England and France has broken down and Napoleon is preparing for an invasion of England. The book does a great job of showing not only the hopelessness of this prospect (there was no way to get an army across the channel in the face of England's naval superiority) but also the precariousness of the English position. Whilst at sea they were the superior, one bad storm leaving a break in their blockage could have allowed the French army an opportunity to dash across the channel and make landful. After this, as Hornblower puts it, "the tricolour flag would fly over the tower of London". After the last novel, Lieutenant Hornblower, we're used to seeing the title character from the eyes of others (in that case, Mr. Bush). We know he is intelligent, dashing, daring and all the rest, what we see in this book is how wildly insecure he is. This becomes irritating at times, but it does help to flesh out a very real character of whom we wish to read more, despite his all too human faults. Much is also made in this novel of the system of "Prize" money given to captains during the Napoleonic wars and the disdain Hornblower has for it. I think this is perhaps overstated somewhat and starts to feel a bit preachy, particularly towards the end when Hornblower gives up a chance at hundreds of thousands of pounds worth of prize to do the "right thing" and engage a frigate with his severely underpowered and outmatched sloop. The idea that he would do this is not at issue, it was the right thing to do for the war effort, however the book does have a tendency to paint those receiving prize money as opportunistic and corrupt officers, uncaring of the overall war effort and interested simply in lining their own pockets; which in this case was most patently untrue given that the capture of the treasure fleet was a major objective of the war effort, if only to keep the money out of Napoleons hands. Overall, an entertaining book that paints a very human picture of a naval captain striving to do what he considers his duty and struggling with the fear that he is not up to the task that is required of him, whilst others watch the actions he considers simply "necessary" and see a remarkable and heroic man.

Một Xác Chết Hai Hồn Ma - Chuyện Không Kể Lúc Nửa Đêm Thư viện Sách hướng dẫn

Sách được viết bởi Bởi: Người Khăn Trắng

This is John Grisham's first and only non-fiction book. It is about the injustice experienced by Ron Williamson who was wrongly convicted of murder and consequently spent 11 years on Oklahoma's death row before advances in DNA technology proved him innocent. This book highlights the flaws in America's death penalty laws. Grisham meticulously documents the harrowing and deplorable treatment experienced by death row inmates by cruel and sadistic prison guards. This book invoked a lot of anger and frustration towards the American state governments for still holding onto archaic and totally flawed capital punishment laws. The book lacked any fictional suspense due the significant amount of dedication in detailing all the facts surrounding the Ron Williamson case. Although it lacked the usual page-turning style of John Grisham's fictional books - it does highlight and bring to the forefront the age old debate and discussion about how the legal system can be defective and as a result deeming capital punishment as inept. If you liked Dead Man walking - this book is comparable and further highlights the plight of innocent people subjected to inhumane punishments. Like John Grishom, I am against the death penalty. I myself am passionate about seeing America following Australia's abolition of the death penalty which took place under the Death Penalty Abolition Act 1973.

Mesu brought the book of Job to life with strong characters I cared about and truly wanted to know. She made sure God was in the forefront of every page. Even amid the sufferings of Job, this was a great read.
