suçlu bir okuma, iyi bir film izlemek gibi. Herhangi bir sayfaya dönebilirim ve birkaç dakika içinde hikayeye dalmıştım.
Şüphesiz Şaka Yapıyorsunuz, Bay Feynman! yirminci yüzyılın en önemli fizikçilerinden biri tarafından kronolojik olarak sıralanmış bir fıkra dizisidir ve okumak mutlak bir zevktir. Feynman teknik olarak yetkin bir yazar değil, ama iyi bir ipliğin nasıl döndürüleceğini kesinlikle biliyor ve o kadar ilginç bir insandı ki temelde her şeye bakış açısı ilginç. Bu kitabı alın ve Los Alamos'ta kilit toplama, Brezilyalı sokak sanatçılarıyla bongo davul çalma ve en önemlisi Feynman'ın yaşam tutkusu ve derin entelektüel merakla ilgili hikayelere çekileceksiniz. Şüphesiz Şaka Yaptınız Bay Feynman! 'I okuduktan sonra dünya daha ilginç ve heyecan verici bir yer.
3. kitap, harika bir dizi ama 3 kitap en az memnun. Bu kitapları sadece hikaye için değil, yazarların din, sosyo-politika, teknoloji ve bilim, felsefe vb. ama bu kitapta biraz cömert oldu ve takip etmek benim için zor oldu. Zor kitaplardan korkmuyorum, ama sonsuza dek varoluşsal soyutlamaları biriktirdiğinizde, hepsi hantal ve anlamsız hale geliyor. İlk iki kitapta çok daha fazla derinlik ve berrak düzyazı vardı. Gergin beynim bir yana, hikaye çizgisi oldukça iyiydi ve sonraki üç kitap için güçlü bir temel oluşturdu. Onları dört gözle bekliyorum. Hala bu kitabı 3, hangi benim kitapta iyi bir 3 verdi-Kötü 2- Çok iyi değil 3- İyi 4- Çok iyi 5- Vay!
** spoiler alert ** After the huge media hype about this book, I was expecting something a bit more engrossing. Parts of the book really drag, explanation of dog training and the odyssey of Edgar and his dogs. The human characters in the book are the least developed of any. The dog characters seem more real. And the reason for the deep animosity between Gar and his brother are shown rather than well explained. It still leaves a lot of doubt in the reader's mind. I wondered if this was a purposeful device by the author, demonstrating Edgar's doubts and frustrations due to his muteness, and the way he's friendless, except for the dogs. The last 150 pages of the book, are where the story finally unfolds. Then events move very quickly. Wroblewski writes beautiful description without the trite metaphors many writers fall into. Our book group selected this book, and the facilitator found many parallels to Hamlet, and some to the Odyssey. We were about evenly split over liking and disliking the book. Many felt that it could have been made shorter without losing any important components.
http://nhw.livejournal.com/1022168.ht...[return]Doctor Who and the Crusaders is the only one of the 1960s Who novels to have been drawn from a four-part rather than seven-part story, and Whitaker makes full use of the extra space this gives him to expand on his own original material. His opening paragraph is pretty memorable:[return][return]As swiftly and as silently as a shadow, Doctor Who s Space and Time ship, Tardis, appeared on a succession of planets each as different as the pebbles on a beach, stayed awhile and then vanished, as mysteriously as it had come. And whatever alien world it was that received him and his fellow travellers, and however well or badly they were treated, the Doctor always set things to rights, put down injustice, encouraged dignity, fair treatment and respect. [return][return]Despite the solecisms of 'Doctor Who' and 'the Tardis' (which are fortunately not repeated later in the text), it's a good start, and the whole story fees more embedded in an ongoing narrative than does Doctor Who and the Zarbi. This is partly because Whitaker makes the Ian/Barbara relationship even more explicitly romantic than in his previous book. But it's also because there is a good sense of geography, of this Palestine, despite its rather implausible woodlands, being a place with real towns filled with merchants, robbers and warlords.[return]The biggest loss from the TV version is the rhythmic, indeed iambic, structure of some of the set pieces; but I guess that would not read as well as it sounded. However, Ian's humanistic discussion with Saladin, and the decency and chivalry of the Saracen leaders, remain high points of the story. Well worth hunting down if you can find it.
