Book

Tutta un'altra musica (2009)

I loved this book. I found myself laughing out loud in places - there is something about the sense of humour in his writing that really chimes with mine. And I often found myself smiling at things that I recognised from my own experiences, or at the little ironies in the story. I finished the boo...

Book

Juliet, gola (2009)

I went into this book expecting writing rivalling About a Boy, and I did initially get that. However, as nice as the rising action was, I found it anticlimactic. I realize that there needn't be a crazy big *thing* that needs to happen, but when the characters finally met, I found myself wanting a...

Shakespeare scriveva per soldi: Diario di un lettore (2008)

This is a collection of Hornby's rambling, funny book review articles for a magazine from 2006-8. Ahem:"The annoying thing about reading is that you can never get the job done. The other day I was in a bookstore flicking through a book called something like 1001 Books You Must Read Before You Die...

Shakespeare para için yazdı (2008)

I just like the way he writes, witty and insightful with lots of non-sequitors.Also enjoy the series: books bought this month does versus books read this month, and never the twain shall meet, which is the reality of a book lover!In this book he's discovered Young Adult Fiction, so i've taken not...

Sono tutte storie (2012)

This is great light reading - will only take you a couple of hours - and will leave you with the feeling that you've actually accomplished something (namely giving you the sense you've gone through all the books that Hornby read which you wouldn't have bothered reading yourself). As a bonus, Horn...

More Baths, Less Talking (2012)

What does it say about me that I've already read this, and didn't realize it?Nick Hornby's memoirs of reading as published in the Believer each month are my favorite writing about reading. I read the new collections as they're released and come back to them, either because my memory is so bad I f...

Book

Everyone's Reading Bastard (2012)

I know this is a Kindle Single and therefore a short story but I still found myself puzzled when I came to the ending - that's it?! Seems like a plot that should've been fleshed out and made into a full length novel, because it definitely has potential to be interesting and amusing. But in this f...

Tutti mi danno del bastardo (2012)

"Per un attimo Charlie si aggrappò alla speranza che nella vita di Elaine ci fosse un altro bastardo. Non andava molto d'accordo con suo padre, per esempio, e dove lavorava prima c'era un caporedattore che tuttora detestava. Ma in fondo lo sapeva. Si concesse un paio di minuti, fece due, tre resp...

Book

Songbook (2003)

I take music very seriously, drawing deep meaning, or trying to, from many of the songs and albums I listen to. I've been told by someone I care deeply for that I take music too seriously--that I'm idealizing fake or pretend stories and messages and that, by doing so, I've tainted my outlook on r...

How to Be Good (2003)

This book made me sad. It was really, really depressing. In fact, so much that it actually put me in a bad mood while I was reading it.Don't get me wrong; there were flashes of humor, clever writing, and certainly it begs a lot of introspection. But it was a real downer. None of the hope of "...

The Complete Polysyllabic Spree (2015)

Mint olvasónapló írónak, akinek Nick Hornby az egyik kedvenc szerzője már egy ideje a perifériámon lebegett a The Complete Polysyllabic Spree, amelyben több, mint kétévnyi olvasmányélményéről ír. Addig kerülgettem, hogy angolul kelljen elolvasni (komolyabb művek angolul való emésztésétől néha még...

A Long Way Down (2006)

This is a dark comedy for it is about suicide and reading this is both entertaining and thought-provoking.This is my 1st book by a contemporary British author, Nick Hornby (born 1957). His other works, High Fidelity (1995), About a Boy (1998) and How to be Good (2001) all ended up in New York Tim...

Book

An Education

There were memorable characters, a vivid sense of time and place - an England right on the cusp of profound change - an unusual mix of high comedy and deep sadness, and interesting, fresh things to say about class, ambition and the relationship between children and parents. My wife, Amanda, is an...

Slam (2010)

They were called the Parrs, and they lived in Hastings, and they were all right. There was a kid called Jamie, who was six months older than me, and Jamie had a sister called Scarlett, who was twelve. And Mum liked Tina and Chris, the parents. They used to sit in this English bar, night after nig...

Not a Star and Otherwise Pandemonium (2006)

Inside the envelope was a video and a little note which said: Dear Lynn, I’m not in the habit of dropping smutty films through people’s letter-boxes! But I thought you and Dave might be interested in this one! It’s not mine, I should add! Carl was at a mate’s house on Friday night after they’d be...

High Fidelity (2014)

This was when she’d been in the new job a few months and her salary was starting to pile up in the bank a bit. She lent me five grand; if she hadn’t, I would have gone under. I have never paid her back because I’ve never been able to, and the fact that she’s moved out and is seeing somebody else ...
