Eğer bir Savaş Bölgesinde Ölürsem: Beni Boxed ve Beni Eve Gönder Tim O'Brien (1999)
Loved it! Especially the mice.
An unpleasant book, but I think important to read, for the way that people thought then. Few white writers now could be that honest about prejudice. They can condemn it with sickeningly violent examples, but seem to miss their own complicity, or avoid the hypocrisy that nurtured its existence in the first place. Herbert the author faces it head on, as an unapologetic white man of those times, and his appropriation of the voices of others is racist in itself. But he has laid it out for all to see and for this we can thank him.
Wow, another hit from Picoult. Once again, she successfully humanizes the "bad guy," and grabs her reader and doesn't let go. This is told in a way unlike the other books I've read of her work in that it's told by an omniscient narrator and switches time to tell the story in a spiral--her other books tell the story from varying point of views. I definitely couldn't put this one down.
