Haruki Murakami "Dance Dance Dance"

Haruki Murakami is a famous name in the world of modern literature. A remarkable writer with the personal style and a personal way of making poetry while writing a prose. Those who are acquainted with his works will find Dance Dance Dance very much of an interest and those who never read will have a chance to open the new Universe of his literary works.  And now a few words about book itself.

High-class call girls billed to Mastercard. A psychic thirteen-year-old drop-out with a passion for Talking Heads. A hunky matinee idol doomed to play dentists and teachers. A one-armed beach-combing poet, an uptight hotel clerk and one very bemused narrator caught in the web of advanced capitalist mayhem. Combine this offbeat cast of characters with Murakami’s idiosyncratic prose and out comes Dance Dance Dance. It is an assault on the senses, part murder mystery, part metaphysical speculation; a fable for our times as catchy as a rock song blasting from the window of a sports car.
Welcome to the mystery of reading!

Herman Melville "Moby Dick"

Today I represent a famous book by Herman Melville “Moby Dick”.

In his imagination Melville lived as well as wrote Moby Dick, his great epic of whales and whaling. It tells the story of Ahab, Captain of the Pequod and of his revenge-mission and insane pursuit of Moby Dick, the fierce white whale. Among Ahab’s crew is Ishmael, a young man undergoing a grueling rite of passage and pursuing a different salvation.

As the Pequod circles the globe like a latter-day Noah’s Ark, so Moby Dick ranges and digresses through space and time, through mythologies, religions and philosophies. It is Melville’s great ‘romance of adventure’ and one of the greatest novels of all time.

Steven Pressfield "The Legend of Bagger Vance"

In the Depression year of 1931, on the golf links at Krewe Island off Savannah’s windswept shore, two legends of the game, Bobby Jones and Walter Hagen, meet for a mesmerizing thirty-six-hole showdown. Another golfer will also compete – a troubled local war hero, once a champion, who comes with his mentor and caddie, the mysterious Bagger Vance. Sage and charismatic, it is Vance who will ultimately guide the match, for he holds the secret of the Authentic Swing. And he alone can show his protégé the way back to glory.

It’s a philosophical fantasy imagined on a golf course, heavy with fog, storm, fireworks and howling winds of supernatural forces…

Douglas Adams "The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy"

Seconds before the Earth is demolished to make way for a galactic freeway, Arthur Dent is plucked off the planet by his friend Ford Prefect, a researcher for the revised edition of The Hitchhiker’s Guide to the Galaxy who, for the last fifteen years, has been posing as an out-of-work actor.

Together this dynamic pair begin a journey through space aided by quotes from The Hitchhiker’s Guide (“A towel is about the most massively useful thing an interstellar hitchhiker can have”) and a galaxy-full of fellow travelers: Zaphod Beeblebrox – the two-headed, three-armed ex-hippie and totally out-to-lunch president of the galaxy; Trillian, Zaphod’s girlfriend (formally Tricia McMillan), whom Arthur tried to pick up at a cocktail party once upon a time zone; Marvin, a paranoid, brilliant and chronically depressed robot; Veet Voojagig, a former graduate student who is obsessed with the disappearance of all the ballpoint pens he bought over the years.

Where are these pens? Why are we born? Why do we spend so much time in between wearing digital watches? For all the answers stick your thumb to the stars. And don't forget to bring a towel!

Die Haupthelden sind zwei verliebten Menschen, die viel erlebt haben, um ihre Liebe zu erhalten. Toni und Helen kannten einander seit ihrer Kindheit.  Aber als sie älter wurden, erfuhren sie ihr Familiengeheimnis.

Mario Puzo “The Godfather”

 “The Godfather” is one of the best pieces of literature ever written and the most interesting novel that I have ever read. Mario Puzo described the mysterious and powerful world of American Mafia, which was controlled by a few originally Italian Families. He told the story of the Family Corleone, an Italian immigrant who went from poverty in Little Italy to create one of the Five Families of New York, especially of don Corleone and his four children, Sonny, Fred, Connie and Michael. The most enjoyable character was the hot-tempered Santino Corleone, better known as “Sonny.” He was so real and interesting to me. Sonny made many thoughtless decisions that led to his death…..

 I would definitely recommend this book to anyone who likes thriller novels.

"Opa steht auf rosa Shorts"
Kirsten Boie

Ich möchte über ein Buch erzählen. Es hat mir viel Spaß  gemacht, dieses Buch zu lesen. Der Autor erzählt über Helen und ihre Familie: Mutter, Vater und Großvater. Der Leser erfuhr viele lustige Situationen aus dem Leben dieser Familie. Wir erlebten zusammen mit den Haupthelden Glück und Leid. Wir lachten zusammen mit Helen, als sie ihrem Großvater die Großmutter ihrer Freundin vorstellte. Wir fühlten ihre Verzweiflung, als sie eines Tages in der Schule Schmach hatte.
Der Autor zeigte die Beziehung zwischen einem Großvater und seiner Enkelin. Es ist sehr interessant, dass sie zu zwei verschiedenen Generationen gehören, aber sie verständigen sich mit einander. Die Enkelin es zieht öfter vor, sich mit ihren Problemen an ihren Großvater zu wenden, und nicht an ihre Eltern.
 Ich empfehle Ihnen dieses Buch zu lesen.
