"Poems" Salvatore Quasimodo

I do not like poetry, they have never liked and it looks so that I will not let me convert. But as I ENGAGED my plan to get to know all the Nobel laureates, also had time to read poetry. Salvatore Quasimodo was hitherto completely unknown to me. So I've ertauscht a book of his, fortunately mostly short poems and read it. About the poems I can not say the same. The introduction does not help much. What does not like, will not understand and that's that.

So no assessment on my part. If you like, need to read yourself:)

"Kaprysik" Mariusz Szczygieł

A few days ago, I have "God Country" read and Szczygieł features I liked so much that I immediately wanted to read another book by him. Fortunately, I got a few days of this little book and was able to read it finished in one evening.

This somewhat cheesy cover and the title (in German `a little` fad) are the reader is not fooled. The book contains seven wonderful reports. Szczygiel me again taken with his comments, simple questions, his simple yet convinced (!) Sensitive language.

All reports dealing with women - seemingly ordinary people, but all are in some way special.

added Am I like the best first feature. Szczygiel describes the Diaries of Janice Turek. She has her whole life cataloged everything - chance meetings, breakfasts, lunches, dinners, gifts, no matter how small they were, read books (where I know it?), Films seen, all telephone calls, visits, etc. Each event got a number and was counted. Incredible! The family of Mrs. Turek knew from their hobby, or rather forced her (?) Nothing. After her death, countless books have been discovered. I really like statistics and I feel better when my world is sorted - so perhaps my fascination with the legacy of Mrs. Turek.

The other features are equally interesting. Szczygiel trying to learn what motivates women to Ania to be photographed on a regular basis. There are no ordinary photos - several days before she is preparing to elaborate - they sew and can even create your own choreography costumes.

The author becomes a detective, he as a old list with several names of women occurs. When each name is the date of birth and address.

The final report has touched me very much - Szczygiel presents a selection of fragments from the 52-year correspondence between the two study friends. Each week they have written a letter and even though they have lived relatively close, they met only rarely.

The book was not published in German, unfortunately - probably some of the reports are too specific. A pity, I would have highly recommended you!

"The Woman in the Dunes Kobo Abe

One day, I devoured the book. I was mesmerized by Abe normal. I really could not free myself from the state of anxiety and despair that has put me in the Japanese. The sand dominated my thoughts, I felt it on the skin, mouth and ears, between fingers and in your hair. My thoughts turned to orange.

a biology teacher Jumpei Niki, a passionate entomologist, makes a short trip, the aim is to discover a new species of insect. The man looks in the dunes, as the insects sought to live in the sand. During his search he discovered between the dunes village, where he asks for one night. This request is to be his undoing. The villagers place it in a hut that was built in a sandy hole. In the hut already lives a woman who works every night at the sand removal. The wind ensures that always be succeeded by new sand. This work ensures the existence of the entire village - where the people would stop, shoveling away the sand too much trouble, would disappear, the entire village under the sand. The teacher knows how to start not think he is in a trap. All of his energy he puts into the development of an idea how he escaped the sand hole could. The woman on the other hand makes economic use of the words, she receives her companion almost indifferent. At the same time they tried it slowly to the everyday routine and get used to life in the sand. Although the man never gives up and always think of a way to escape, he falls unnoticed in everyday life and accepted by the sand-driven life.

addition to the action, Abe devotes much space to the thoughts of the main protagonists. They cover a wide spectrum - from the nature of the sand, on the characteristic of women up to the debate about the meaning of life. These fragments touching so many topics that they are certainly read one time can.

The greatest strength of the novel is the language. The author manages to create a unique atmosphere. Very suggestively, he describes the ubiquitous sand, so the life, the daily washing and the hopeless struggle against the constant moving up of new sand masses.

The author leaves the reader with several possible interpretations - the sand can be used as the main character and thus a parable of life are seen. At the same time can the novel as a representation of women (as it claims the title) who know to subdue the man.

Silver Nitrate Treatment On Cervix

" Ourania "JMG Le Clézio

Good thing this was not the first book by Le Clezio, I 've read. Had it been the case, I would have chopped off the Nobel Prize winner certainly made me immediately and never bother to read anything else by him. Here I have "revolutions" and "Fish of Gold" so much. "Ourania" is a much weaker novel.

Daniel Sillitoe - French geographer - is coming to Emporio. It is a place where scientists, primarily anthropologists, from all over the world to conduct research together, to deliver lectures and exchange experiences. In the first few days, Daniel an exploration of the anthropologists, because they occur against the local people have very mixed feelings. The valley is inhabited mainly by very poor people - the girls prostitute themselves, the children look at the garbage dumps for food, the women work from early morning until late at night at the strawberry fields.

Nearby is a mysterious settlement - Campos. Daniel is very interested in its people - they have an autonomous community with its own rules and its own language founded. When, in bus accident Rafael - an inhabitant of Campos - gets to know he is looking forward to learn more.

Le Clézio will have a third level in the novel one - Daniel meets a girl from Puerto Rico, with whom he enters into a relationship. Dalia missing but her little son, who lives with his father, who is involved in a revolution.

The variety of topics that affect Le Clézio in this book but quite recently, overshadowed the essential. Campos, or rather Ourania moves into the background. Too bad, I would still like to know more about the people, their home and daily life in the community . Learn The other plots should also be preparing. In this form, mutating the book a collection of different thoughts that are never thought through.

A great accolade goes back to Le Clézios language - long, well-formed sentences in the style of the ancient art of storytelling are evidence of the increasingly rare these days that occur ability to tell stories without haste.

I can "Ourania" not recommended. However, one should learn Le Clézio necessarily know - for example by the two other titles that I mentioned at the beginning.

How To Baptize Someone With Medical

" God Country "Mariusz Szczygieł

A Pole writes articles about the Czech Republic. Curious? Certainly unusual. Szczygieł can almost be called Czecho-phil - he is interested for the country, its culture, language, people, history. The best thing is - he shares his interests and makes it really masterful.

The book has attracted me for a long time since I Czechs also interesting to think, has learned even two semesters Czech. Therefore I was very happy when I borrow the book from a friend was allowed.

The author does not in its features different topics: the construction of the largest Stalin monument in Europe, the success story of the shoe company Bata, the harassment and persecution in the communist era, the example of the successful singer Marta Kubisova or the unparalleled career of Karel Gott . It attempts to define the essence of Szczygieł Czechs and discover.

Szczygieł focuses on details, on careful research and the search of unexpected links. His reports, he constructs truly masterful - he puts together contradictory, conjures out unknown facts and impresses with unconventional remarks. This is done by using short, clear sentences. He offers no ready solutions, encourage more of their own reflections.

for the Polish reader, it is both exciting and surprising to see how different communism develops in the two countries, and understand how different the Czechs the meaning of life.

The book I can recommend a German reader - it pays to know this small nation in a different way to learn.

Negative Pregnancy Test But Frequent Urination

" Öland "Johan Theorin

70th Years, Öland - the grandparents to look after the five-year Jens. When Grandpa comes to the boat house and the grandma falls asleep, removed the boy and goes to the Alvar - the steppe-like landscape, the interior of the island covered. Although Jens will be looking for a large area, he still lost. Julia, his mother, has been found not in the twenty years since the disappearances of her son with this fact. One day her father, she calls and tells of new tracks from Jens, she decides to go to Öland. There she begins with the grieving process and helps her dad reopen the case of her son.

How is it possible that another Scandinavian Crime arrives with the readers?

Theorin it achieves a wonderful representation of the conditions to leave the island. The island itself provides a unique backdrop for the plot - isolation, wild nature, steep cliffs, the raging sea, and the autumn weather with rain and storm to build on the atmosphere. At the same time, the author describes the social and economic conditions on Öland. The construction of the bridge that connects mainland Öland will change the lives - of a fishing island, the island developed into a tourism center. Many villages are dying out and live on only in the season.

"Öland" is above all but a detective story and the events surrounding the disappearance of Jens most important. Initially, everything happened in a moderate pace - Theorin leads the reader into the complex events of the 30th Years slowly. Sometimes one gets the impression that everything is clear and the author, only the details will be revealed. But then the pace accelerated to such an extent that one wants to swallow the formal sentences to run faster to get ahead and learn how Theorin will refute the seemingly simple solution of the case. He succeeds masterfully, and I am sure that most readers will be surprised at the end.

Theorin works with short, concise sentences. The chapters are also short and playing alternately in the present and the past. These "tricks" to captivate the reader and make the book so exciting.

is actually in "Öland" not innovative. Theorin working with proven, traditional methods and also achieved his goal of creating an exciting thriller. I have unnecessarily set to an absolute thriller hit, it's certainly a good read but nothing more.

My Rating: 4.5 / 6

Helpt Aloe Vera Bij Frozen Shoulder

" The nun with the sword "Lea Korte

Catalina de Erauso lived in the 17th Century. As a four-year-old girl she was given in a convent, where she was at the age of fifteen years take vows. She did not want to, and fled from the monastery. She disguised herself as a man wandered through Spain and even came to South America.

describes almost five hundred pages Lea Korte Catalinas escape, the Disowned by their parents, life in Seville, then on the ship and finally among the soldiers and sieweiß from the first page to captivate the reader, so it is really difficult to put the book out of hand. The representation of the character of Catalina is their very successful - the reader is confronted with an energetic, courageous and proud girl. A girl who sets goals and they achieved. But a girl can love.

Except Catalina describes Korte, other historical figures. Interestingly fall but the fictional characters from - most important here is Mikael - Catalinas friend. The girl falls in love with him without him but betrayed his true identity. Again and again lose sight of the two to meet up again at unexpected moments. The friendship between Catalina and Mikael gives the Roman dynamism and although everyone will suspect that this relationship needs to find a happy ending loses, the novel does not live.

It really is amazing how long it is possible to live as Catalina Francisco and survive. It is clear that the author here has a lot of imagination can be incorporated. In my opinion, it has something to sparsely considered the practical side of life as a man. Only now and then she goes to the problem of washing or the use of toilet but here I would have liked to see more reality.

I was thrilled with the hitorischen background of the novel. Korte added to the novel into a true treasure of information Life in Spain of the 17th Century made. Although I have had some prior knowledge on, I learned a lot about the Inquisition and its "functioning" as well as the colonization of South America.

Although visible in the novel some weak points (as already mentioned by me repeating random encounters of the main protagonists), I like the insane and usually read late into the night.

" The fabulous world of the dead bodies, "Mary Roach

The book has attracted me for two reasons. First, I really like have books that relate to medicine, surgery or autopsy. Secondly, I have read many positive reviews on this book.

Mary Roach has created a small compendium of knowledge about what happens to the human body after death, can happen. It describes in detail all the investigations to which a corpse may be subjected when the medicine was given. It can decay studies on the degree depending on the surface and be under the influence of different weather conditions or the use of corpses in experiments of the auto industry, that goal is possible safety body build. Mary Roach touches everyone, even sensitive and delicate issue, personally visited the sites where the experiments are conducted, and runs many interviews in which they shrink from any issue.

In the other chapters devoted to the history of the autopsy, the appearance of the bodies after a plane crash, the crucifixion of technology, the legends are buried alive or the survival of the brain after decapitation. The author has also described the history of cannibalism and to "dispose of" the different ways the bodies below.

In the last chapter she wonders what to do with her body and goes to the Gunter van Hagen's plastination of one. His Body Worlds exhibition I have seen even 2009th I wanted to make a picture of me personally, to understand why it has caused so much debate. Same time, I was curious - had already studied as a child like the human anatomy. Well, probably I have chosen the wrong field of study and should have been studying medicine. Sorry, too late noticed:)

To return to but the book back - the topic I was actually very interested and I have also learned many new things. Mary Roach has surprised me - its bold, objective nature of this delicate issue to address, has convinced me. I liked the questions they have asked their counterparts - of course, curious but not tasteless or even to sensation seeking. She asked actually after all, no question was too strange. My enthusiasm has dimmed only one thing - their sense of humor. Roach has tried to loosen up the subject with many witty remarks and footnotes. I write deliberately - has tried - we have that is definitely a different kind of humor. Your footnotes I felt as a pale imitation of Pratchett, their comments oscillated in the category of school joke that is whispered in class.

Nevertheless, I am not sorry that you have read the book. It is informative, different, innovative, and if it yet another to appear witty - the blend is perfect.

first What was your first book you've read and we have you get it?

I seem to remember that I read first "The Children of Noisy Village". I got it from my mom in the summer because I was 5.5 years old. The copy I still have. Now we read it together with my five year old daughter.

Getting Your Hair Dyed After Shingles

Although the blog has suffered greatly from my lack of time, I would try it again this year to write here regularly.

In 2010, I read less books than in 2009 - that was clear I now have two children, who require more attention. I came up with 76 books plus 4 books that I had broken off. The broken titles were: "The Gathering" by Anne Enright, "The victory of Nelson Mandela" by John Carlin, "Karen Magnus's Daughter" by Mika Waltari and "The true power" by Stefan Zeromski.

Which countries I have visited this year? Once again I have read most books by Polish authors. Here is the complete list:

Poland 18 Germany 8

USA 8

Finland 4 Sweden 4

Iceland 3

France 3

Italy 3

Australia 2 Belgium 2

Czech Republic 2 Portugal 2

Thailand 2

each have a book I read from the following countries: Mexico, Mozambique, Cuba, Denmark, Holland, Austria, Lebanon , Hungary, Nigeria, Angola, Switzerland, Ireland, Congo, Japan, Iran, Spain, Great Britain, Canada and Kyrgyzstan.

Most directories are so out of Europe - 57 pcs. The other continents I have visited so often

North and Central America: 11

Australia and Oceania: 2

Africa: 4

Asia: 6

Unfortunately I have not read a book from South America.

Last year I had planned to visit Africa more often, what I only partly succeeded. Four books from African countries, after all, a good result. In addition, I wanted to meet Philippine literature - I move this project to 2011 and complement it with South American literature.

I also have read more books written by men, women wrote only 21st However, I have never paid attention to the gender of the author's words, this result is purely coincidental.

In 2010, I have finally read more in Polish - 50 books were in that language, the remainder in German.

I've been working on my challenges and plans and have 4 books which were crowned with the Nobel Prize read, 6 new countries visited and have read 4 books in the Polish challenge to the literary awards.

2010 had I continued my work with a couple of Polish publishing houses - read 29 of the books were donated by the publisher. In conclusion, I must say that I am satisfied with the cooperation: most books were hit, there were only a few specimens that have not taken my taste.

It is difficult for me to choose the book of the year. So I selected a few books that have most impressed me either, or just enjoy reading were. Here I will only list the titles are also available in German or English:

"The Hakawati" Rabinah Alameddine

"The Moor" Lea Korte

"Half of the Sun Chimamanda Ngozi Adichie

" silk "Alessandro Baricco

" Persepolis "Marjane Satrapi

" The White Ship "Chingiz Aitmatov

" Beasts "Joyce Carol Oates

In 2010, I discovered audio books for me - for a walk with the stroller I've heard 10th After initial difficulties, I'm used to hearing and was able to concentrate easily. All audio books were in German.

was with surprise I found that the blog, though I'm here so rare, 18 observer. Compared to my Polish blog, there may be little, but I am each person who stops by here. Thank you for this!

I found last year, many new literary landscape for me - the reading was still conscious, the choice of books more precise, I have again had courage to put away books that have interested me. You, my readers, I wish that 2011 you pleasantly surprised and that you can claim on the threshold of 2012, that you have experienced a good year!

Finally, let me show you a photo of my new bookcase. Earlier, the books were stacked in my sub only to each other, threatening to fall at any time. Now they look fine in the rank and file and wait to be read out.
