Review:After reading many of the very insightful reviews this book already has, I will not try to add anything. Suffice it to say that I read The Name of the Rose years ago and my battered 1983 paperback still sits on my bookshelf. I read it again a few weeks ago on my Kindle and enjoyed it as much or more than the first time. A great book! Read more
Review:Excelente descripción de un problema candente, que excede la topografía en la cual se desarrolla la narrativa para trascender en una temática mundial. Casi autobiográfica, la novela es sumamente amena desde la primera página hasta la última, y en numerosos tramos resulta cautivante. Uno quisiera que el libro no concluyera tan pronto. Harper Lee es una aguda escritora, bien merecedora del premio Pulitzer. Lástima que no haya sido más prolífica, para regocijo de los lectores.

Review:Camus introduces to the reader, in a rare second-person point of view, to Jean-Baptiste Clamence.

At points in the novel, the reader is actually telling Clamence what to do, and he is responding back. It is slightly eerie, but ingenious. The novel, however, is about Clamence's experiences in WWII, and how he has survived to become a deranged, off-kilter person. The last chapter i... Read more

Review:After watching and loving Nocturnal Animals I saw there was a book the movie was based on. This book, so I put it on hold at the library to see what it was like. I was hoping I would love it just as much as I did the movie.
Tony & Susan was an interesting read. Because I had just seen the movie I knew where it was headed (if it was the same), and yet it was still really intense! I still was holding my breath at times waiting to see what would happen. It was particularly interesting be... Read more
