(Original Review, 1980-09-29)League for the purity of what?An admittedly less-than-thorough examination of Lessing's work leads me to conclude that her primary faults are bad (i.e., clumsy, awkward, [difficult without the extra levels that make Joyce, etc. difficult]) writing, excessive moralizing, ...
Meh! und Wäh!Was hat die Kritikerin der WELT über dieses Buch geschrieben? "Die gute Terroristin ist eine dramatische und literarisch aufregende Mischung aus Thriller, Gesellschaftsroman, Zeitgemälde und einem glühenden Plädoyer, dem Terror endlich eine endgültige Absage zu erteilen."Meine Meinung: ...
Amazing that this is written in 1924. A professor accidentally found a growth rate. The resulting egg would grow faster and then would continue to grow fast even without further exposure to this ray. The professor has to give credit to the person who built the lab in order to get published. ...
To kontynuacja "Piątego dziecka". Są dalsze losy Bena. W pierwszej części narodziny i dorastanie Bena przedstawione są z perspektywy Harriet, w tym utworze śledzimy wydarzenia z punktu samego Bena. Choroba Bena do końca pozostaje tajemnicą i nie wiadomo dlaczego różni się od reszty. Chłopak przedst...
Historia niesamowicie mnie wciągnęła. Kobieta jest zmuszona wybierać między dziećmi. Sama zastanawiam się jak bym postąpiła w podobnej sytuacji. Bohaterowie powieści Harriet i David Lovattowie są idealną parą. Po ślubie kupują ogromny dom i chcą mieć liczną rodzinę - przynajmniej ośmioro dzieci. Wb...
First let me say that I cheated a bit and listened to this 27 hour audiobook and that part was a mistake. It made the divisions in the story more difficult to understand and I ended up going back and getting the ebook to make sense of it afterword. The book hit me much like Madame Bovary did back wh...
I initially got this book to read for The Dead Writers Society Literary Birthday. But it took forever for me to get, and by the time I started/finished October was over. So unfortunately it doesn't count. That said, I wish I had skipped this book. It was all over the place with too many characters/m...
2016 Book Club Read for Sept.It took me three tries to make it though this book. Three times. This third time, I don't know what it was but after about 50 pages, I just didn't want to put the book down. This is slightly strange because the people are largely unlikable.The novel has a frame story, an...
This one book of the bible proves that the bible is not full of junk only. This book is good philosophy. I suspect that the last chapter of it was an add on over time because it doesn't flow with the rest of the book. I listened to this book from my "Word of Promise Complete Audio Bible" availabl...
It took me a long time to finish this book, and truthfully, in the middle of a busy time at work, it was overambitious for me to attempt it. It's not a novel in any true sense of the word, and quite honestly, I had no idea what sort of book I was getting into when I began The Golden Notebook. I'm no...
