This book is very touching and has a host of well thought out characters. It would be five stars if it weren't for the fact that the book is so darn preachy. The author does not seem to want us to form our own opinions about issues, but frequently cuts in comments that are almost bossy in wanting us to feel the same way. Now, this would not be such a large problem if the story itself did not compell us to feel that way regardless of what the author thinks. Her comments are needless and often annoying. The book itself is very good, and I can see how it was a huge factor in starting the Civil War, as its biggest strength is drawing out emotions from people. You really care about what happens to the characters.
همه ی اشعارش زیباست به قول خودش "بال جادویی شعر" الاخصوص گرگ،کوچه، در عصر ارتباطات و همین شعر پایین که با یاد برتراند راسل سروده: نه عقابم نه کبوتر اما چون به جان آید در غربت ما بال جادویی شعر بال رویایی عشق می رساند به افلاک مرا اوج میرم ،اوج میشوم دور از این مرحله دور میروم سوی جهانی که در آن همه موسیقی جان است و گلفشانی نور همه گلبانگ سرور تا کجاها برد این موج تربناک مرا
give me a moment to catch my breath and lift my jaw from the ground.
Lowboy è un libro sulla malattia mentale e sulla solitudine dell'uomo metropolitano. Dall'inizio alla fine si evince come ciascuno viva in un suo mondo, in una propria realtà intrisa di percezioni e presupposti svincolati da una realtà condivisa. In pratica, l'assunto è che ciascuno a modo suo, sia uno schizofrenico con una propria realtà e che quindi sia questa la ragione della solitudine dell'uomo contemporaneo. L'idea poteva essere interessante, ma sinceramente la traduzione è piena di errori e la storia in sè è noiosa. Non si comprende dove l'autore voglia portare il lettore, la prosa è approssimativa e la trama poco coerente. La copertina, almeno quella, merita e porta la firma di Adrian Tomine noto per le copertine del New Yorker.
