His prolific and diverse output included journalism, philosophy, poetry, biography, Christian apologetics, fantasy and detective fiction. Chesterton has been called the "prince of paradox." He wrote in an off-hand, whimsical prose studded with startling formulations. For example: "Thieves respect property. They merely wish the property to become their property that they may more perfectly respect it."[2] He is one of the few Christian thinkers who are equally admired and quoted by both liberal and conservative Christians, and indeed by many non-Christians. Chesterton's own theological and political views were far too nuanced to fit comfortably under the "liberal" or "conservative" banner."

Classic collection of satirical essays, including The Feminine Mind, The War Between the Sexes, Marriage, Woman Sufrage, and The New Age. The Introduction begins: "As a professional critic of life and letters, my principal business in the world is that of manufacturing platitudes for tomorrow, which is to say, ideas so novel that they will be instantly rejected as insane and outrageous by all right thinking men, and so apposite and sound that they will eventually conquer that instinctive opposition, and force themselves into the traditional wisdom of the race."

Joseph Conrad
¥8.09
Classic Conrad novel. According to Wikipedia: "Joseph Conrad (1857 – 1924) was a Polish-born English novelist. Many critics regard him as one of the greatest novelists in the English language—a fact that is remarkable, as he did not learn to speak English fluently until he was in his twenties (and always with a strong Polish accent). He became a naturalized British subject in 1886. Conrad is recognized as a master prose stylist. Some of his works have a strain of romanticism, but more importantly he is recognized as an important forerunner of modernist literature. His narrative style and anti-heroic characters have influenced many writers, including Ernest Hemingway, D. H. Lawrence, F. Scott Fitzgerald, Graham Greene, William S. Burroughs, Joseph Heller, V.S. Naipaul, Italo Calvino and J. M. Coetzee."

I replied that he can surely fulfill this dream considering that he has been speaking and writing in this language for a long time: his wife is from Laos and their language of communication is Thai. But it seemed to him a difficult dream to reach … To joke, I told him I should write a book on ??How to make one’s dreams come true??? because I have some 25 years of experience in the field … and I do not hesitate to do everything possible to realize mine. In addition, I accomplished almost all the dreams I really wanted. There is still one, still running, but which I will reveal later in this book;) .

Kipling was one of the most popular writers in English, in both prose and verse, in the late 19th and early 20th centuries.[2] The author Henry James said of him: "Kipling strikes me personally as the most complete man of genius (as distinct from fine intelligence) that I have ever known." In 1907, he was awarded the Nobel Prize in Literature, making him the first English language writer to receive the prize, and to date he remains its youngest recipient. Among other honours, he was sounded out for the British Poet Laureateship and on several occasions for a knighthood, all of which he declined.

Fredé hasznos asszony, a j?v? letéteményese. Olyasmire képes, amire csupán a n?k t?redéke: gyermeket szülni. Gileád állama kül?n?s figyelmet fordít arra, hogy ? és társai megértsék, a szülés életük egyetlen célja és értelme. A vallási fundamentalista alapokon kormányzott ország átnevel?k?zpontokban készíti fel a termékeny n?ket, hogy aztán az uralkodó elithez tartozó családokhoz kerülve két éven belül teherbe essenek a ház urától – a féltékeny, ám gyermekre vágyó Feleségek irigy pillantásaitól kísérve. Fredé a Parancsnok házában igyekszik belesimulni a hétk?znapokba, megfelelni a dogmatikus vallási el?írásoknak és mindenekel?tt megfoganni. Ha eltévelyedik, felakasztják a Falra, vagy ki?zik a Telepekre a Nemn?k k?zé hullákat égetni. A Parancsnok azonban egy este a szobájába hívatja, a szigorú tiltás ellenére teljesen egyedül, amire Fredé akkor sem mondhatna nemet, ha akarna. Margaret Atwood disztópiája megrázó vízió egy olyan világról, ahol a n?k egyetlen szerepe, hogy a vallás, az állam és a szaporodás szolgálatában állnak. A szerz? ?ellenjóslat”-nak nevezte regényét, mondván, ha ez a j?v? részletesen leírható, talán nem fog bek?vetkezni. A mára klasszikussá vált kultuszregényt 1986-ban Booker-díjra jel?lték, 1987-ben pedig megnyerte az els? Arthur C. Clarke-díjat; t?bb mint negyven nyelvre lefordították, és számos filmes és színházi feldolgozás után 2017-ben tévésorozatot is bemutattak bel?le. Majd el?veszem azt a kis vajdarabot, melyet vacsora után a jobb cip?m orrába dugtam… Mi nem kaphatunk sem kéz-, sem arckrémeket. Manapság minden ilyesmi haszontalanságnak tekintend?. Tárolóedények vagyunk, csupán a bels? szerveink fontosak számukra. A küls?nk fel?lük kiszikkadhat, megráncosodhat, akár a dió héja. A Feleségek rendeletben sz?gezték le, hogy nekünk ne járjanak testápoló szerek. Nem akarják, hogy vonzók legyünk. ?pp elég nehéz nekik így is…

Sokan vannak meggy?z?dve arról, hogy gonosz és ?rült teremtés, de ugyanennyien az ellenkez?jér?l is: ártatlan teremtés, aki a k?rülmények áldozata lett. Egy fiatal és felt?rekv? orvos elhatározza, hogy kideríti az igazságot, ezért hetente leül beszélgetni a lánnyal, aki egyre inkább megnyílik neki, ám azt állítja, a gyilkosságból semmire sem emlékszik… Margaret Atwood valós t?rténelmi eseményen alapuló regénye felkerült a Man Booker-díj shortlistjére, és 2017-ben tévésorozat készült bel?le.

C?nd am primit invita?ia de a citi manuscrisul c?r?ii Corinei, am acceptat tem?tor. Sunt la o v?rst? c?nd ??i spui arogant c? ai citit cam tot ?i te ?ntrebi seniorial ce ar putea s? te mai surprind?. Ei bine, cartea Corinei. Care te surprinde prin toate locurile pe care le credeai securizate, impenetrabile. Te surprinde ?n primul r?nd pentru faptul c? refuz? f?r? efort scriitura feminin?, melancolic? ?i vag lamentabil?. Frazele sunt scurte ?i nu intr? b?t?nd la u??, ci tr?ntind-o de perete. Apoi, te surprinde tema predilect? a c?r?ii: amantl?curile, iubirile frugale, rela?iile interzise, tot tac?mul. Practic, Corina omoar? ?n pove?tile ei orice ipocrizie feminist? (chestie care mie mi-a mers la suflet), o ?ngroap? ad?nc ?i ?i pune capac. N-o s? omit sub nicio form? limbajul, care surprinde de asemenea. Corina folose?te limba rom?n? f?r? s? se fereasc? de extremele ei. Are curaj, ?are ou?“, cum s-ar spune. Nu c? ar fi singura, nu c? ar fi o raritate, dar a manipula cuvinte interzise ?ntr-un text literar, f?r? a-i strica savoarea, nu e la ?ndem?na oricui. R?m?ne ?ns? la final impresia general?, cea care conteaz? cel mai mult. Care e bun?, dac? nu foarte bun?. Cartea se cite?te u?or, e cinic?, e vie, are tot ce ?i trebuie pentru a deveni un succes. (?tefan Caraman)Corina Ozon vine dinspre jurnalism spre literatur?, cunosc?nd oamenii, cu talent. Scrie captivant, folosind ?n fraze c?te cuvinte chiar trebuie, f?r? floricele stilistice ?i volute descriptive ?n plus, care ar cre?te statistic durata de somn a popula?iei. ?Zilele aman?ilor“ e o carte pentru dezinhiba?i. N-o recomand pro?tilor si bigo?ilor. (Alexandru Petria)Aceasta este o carte de?teapt?. Iar vr?jitoria nu-i deloc exclus?.

Iar dac? asta nu-i curat? fermec?tur?, atunci ce este? A, ?tiu. Literatur? de?teapt?. (Ana Barton)O lectur? care curge u?or, cu un limbaj direct ?i frust, perfect adaptat subiectului.
