Shakespeare Para Için Yazdı (2008) - Plot & Excerpts
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 note of some of his favorites, and I too shall journey there.If you enjoy reading, and you enjoy insights on reading, you'll probably enjoy this book... I've read all three of these, and this is certainly the weakest. Perhaps that is why he put his column on hold. I can report that he did publish further columns in The Believer, as the issue I picked up this summer had one. The first volume had the novelty of setting out the conditions set by the Polysyllabic Spree and the second had some nice excepts to go with the articles. The third has some variations; a DVD column and a discovery of young adult fiction. Too often, though, you just get nice words about books as he is not allowed to say bad things about other artists. The best parts are where he rambles on about the process of reading or otherwise diverges from the straight reviews. We can read reviews anywhere, the whole why and how about choosing and reading books was always the most interesting part of these writings. You get less of it in this volume, but it still goes down smooth and easy.
