I'm 38 Weeks Andhave A Lot Of White Discharge

"The Metamorphosis" by Franz Kafka


least as far as I'm concerned, after Dostoevsky's novels, there are the stories Kafka !!

In this edition of the Classics Mondadori, in addition to "The Metamorphosis " are also collected:

- Condemnation
- A country doctor (they are all over 14 short stories)
- In the Penal Colony
- The lair (from " During construction of the Great Wall of China )
- a fast (from" A fasting person )

Except "The Burrow "(story that I hated, not for their subject matter, but because of the huge and verbose verbosity), all how these wonderful stories "surreal", are treasure of a multitude of reflections, as in their apparent simplicity, are true metaphors that portray the people of our time, overwhelmed by an inexplicable power and reach.

Here are touched a multitude of topics, ranging from alienation and depersonalization of the individual imposed by society, the inept character, sacrifice, whether of all'ostensione '... Anyone who can read beyond the lines, and capture the various messages contained in each story may, in addition to reflecting on the many silent and monstrous daughters of our society, being able to see in each of them, a sort of autobiography the writer.

short, is a book that absolutely must read! ;)

35th Birthday Invitation Quotes

"The Old Man and the Sea" by Ernest Hemingway




I'm sorry, but really I find it hard to understand why this novel is been so highly praised.
Besides the nice message you want to, of never giving up despite the many difficulties that life imposes on us, I can not take no more than ecstatic, as I write Hemingway's (immensely simple, repetitive, obvious ...) let alone the story itself.
I finished reading it just because they believe that every book, like a movie, go over and then be able to draw conclusions ... but if it were not for this, nothing I would go further enticed into reading, no image kept me tied up with the fantasy there in the sea along with the old fisherman ... and this saddens me very much!
clashed Something in this book as much as a wrong note played in an agreement ...
My opinion is still just my opinion, and I know well, there is no one to recommend or not I leave this book ... then you the freedom to express yourself on this novel told by many " a model of heroic literature of the twentieth century !

How Many Lone Pairs Of Electrons Clf2-

Memoirs of a reader



There are writers that do not need introductions.
reading of their works is a risk that every player has to run individually, self: you will always find an answer, that no one else can suggest, problems, conflicts posed by his age, from their cultural level.
Dostoevsky is one of those writers.
Its research object is the imperfect human psyche, the wounded soul, rebellious soul who longs for harmony, as he struggles between good and evil that seeks its fulfillment through experience pain, distress lacerations.
With amazing courage for the years in which they live and abstract convenzioanale rejects the image of man, the external code of behavior that society accepts and imposes his contemporary, deals with mental processes more obscure and contradictory, where man can not rely on any of its usual support, the dynamics among the most disturbing individual and society, intuition and intellect, freedom and law, faith and atheism, demonic and holiness, reaffirming the essential convergence between the social, political and moral world.

" Notes From Underground" was the first book through which I came into contact with Dostoevsky.
I began to read it in June of 2008, as he was telling me about a guy who I had met a few months earlier.
Actually, they were just the first 15 lines of this book, which led me to approach this person, who had reported as presentation on a website, so for me it was impossible not to be fascinated and intrigued.
then I began to read this book, more to get closer to the boy than anything else, but as we went along with my reading, even from the early pages, I found myself unconditionally infatuated with this writer and his words, that as a river flowing under my eyes unstoppable.
His every sentence resonated with me strongly, enlivening feeling drowsy in the darkness of my basement.
And as a work of art produced in our personal thoughts and emotions, often conflicting with the artist, is so for me a book.
The latter will always be a kind of journey, if only through our imagination accompanied by the words of the author, or that it is a journey in search of something more intimate and personal.
A book is never what they say the most telling argument of those who preceded them, not even what the author meant. A book, especially when it becomes a work of art is what you find there by yourself ... It 's just a trip, research and the discovery of ourselves!
And I, in these "memories" I have rediscovered !!!!!
However, almost reached the end of the story, interrupted my reading because something in me was changing, and so for about a year this book was left out, but obviously never forgotten, even as I continued to devour books of Dostoevsky!
Yesterday, September 4, 2009, I picked this book, being able to finally finish it ... But I will tell you more about it, because it will be up to each of you be able to find out ..

To end my writing here today, I will quote the last lines of the novel, which like many of his "fragments" have given way to a multitude of silent reflections ...

"We are stillborn, and fathers more time not born alive, and the thing we like more and more.
We take taste. Soon figure out how to be born of a 'idea.
But enough, I do not want to write any more "from Underground" ...

Besides, do not end here "memories" of this lover paradoxes. He did not resist and he continued.
But it seems to us that we can Feram here. "

Clear/egg White Discharge Instead Of Period

the call of Freedom






" The Call of the Wild " belongs to those most likely books with which each of us comes in contact while still young, when you have the innocent soul and was always ready to daydream, just as the novels of Verne and Salgari.
I though, I only recently discovered the pleasure and satisfaction you feel when you read a good book, and now my thirst for knowledge and adventure seems to have no end.
Here I am, therefore, that I find myself 25 years to travel with the fantasy to the cold lands of the North to live the adventures of Buck, a German shepherd that has gradually rediscovered his instincts and his freedom.
Buck reminded me how life is a continual struggle, ruthless and cruel, from which we can not afford to be distracted for a moment.
It reminded me of the "Law
and stick tusk."
This novel is a veritable hymn to freedom
and "feel" the last howl of Buck after it finally reached me and filled my heart with joy at the same time of melancholy, as they are well aware that we men, true freedom is not granted. We
fact, it is impossible to return wolves and thus pure. E 'given only to fight for a dream, a utopia ... The story of Buck concludes, perhaps not coincidentally, with the story of his legend.
E 'then this a book that every person regardless of age, should read ... at least to keep on dreaming!
