Didn't like it as much as The man who loved dogs but when I saw it initially was a short story about the chinese immigrants in Cuba that he rewrote later it began to make more sense.
got this book as a free download and found it surprisingly enjoyable. it is not great literature but entertaining enough.
I downloaded this book for free. I wanted a mistery/thriller book and there were some good rei«views about it. It actually won some prizes. I just did not notice it was a Romance/Mistery novel.
Maybe I am too old for this book, but what annoyed the most was that the agenda of the book was too obvious. A little too much info dump as well, even if it was cleverly weaved in in the storyline. I dii learn a lot though.
downloaded this as a free e book. did not even know steam punk was a literary style.
not the best marion zmmler bradley. I thought the problem was the crappy translation but judging from other comments that was not the issue.
Devo confessar que saltei algumas páginas, as da biografia de George Berkeley. Talvez me tenha impedido de entender o fim do livro, mas nunca gostei de filosofia e não me consegui interessar pelas teaorias de berkeley.
Não foi dos livros de Germano Almeida que gostei mais. Penso que ele estava demasiado envolvido pessoalmente, sentimentos de culpa e tal... Houve momentos longos.
gostei mais das histórias relacionadas com áfrica. As outras eram tão líricas que se tornavam confusas para mim (ou talvez ande com dificuldades de concentração)
One of the rare instances I liked the movie much more than the book. The story was interesting but I somehow could not relate to the characters. The movie made them much more alive to me. Plus I did not like the writing much.
e o autor fala em imaginação! Nunca li livro tão monótono. È verdade que as descrições do aparelho genital feminino me deixam fria, mas sobretudo incomodou me profundamente que quase todas as cenas estão no limite da violação. Os jovens são sempre forçados a submeterem se ao padrasto, etc... para não serem denunciados.
had to read this one for my clown class (no, it's not as strange as it seems). The idea was to try and perform scenes from the 3 sisters as a clown.
Really enjoyed "Les Chaises". Absurd, yes, but it's sweet and melancoly and poetic. Plus I had the chance to see it coming alive because I saw the play just before reading the last 3 pages of the text.
The antibiotic resistant bacteria stuff was a bit too militant at times, but I always love these navajo mysteries. Hillerman has a knack for characters.
