Açıkçası, bu bir nedenden dolayı bir klasik. Ben her zaman Tolstoy tarzının hayranıyım.
Basically, everything Jane Austen wrote is superb. Though, Emma is not a book I've read over and over, it's still got a great story and characters of course. Emma is a snot but she's also lovable. Also, while I think class is a huge issue in all of Austen's novels, I found it particularly prevalent in this book.
Fun, quick read - action & romance
I don't find George Bernard Shaw as entertaining as I'm supposed to. I have no doubt that his work was very forward-thinking and funny at the time, and I know that he is an important playwright. I'm also sure that in the hands of the right director any of these plays would be fantastic. However, I felt like all of the stories in this collection contained the same gimmicks. You could tell where the play was going in the first couple scenes. I guess my favorite of them all was Candida. It had the most unexpected plotline, and I felt like it wasn't trying to be anything.
I'm reading this right now as a part of discourse analysis study to compare it to Lakeoff's Thinking Points, which is another rule book for progressives. The beginning of the book grabbed me when he says "The Prince was written by Machiavelli for the Haves on how to hold power. Rules for Radicals is written for the Have-Nots on how to take it away." He's very obviously affected by having been through the Red Scare and the McCarthy days. Funny how much some of it reminds me of the situation we're going through today.
