The Red Badge Of Courage (2000) - Plot & Excerpts

Non capisco se l'ho trovato noioso perché non mi piacciono i libri di guerra (bello scemo che mi sono scelto proprio questo libro) o perché mi ha dato problemi l'inglese.Non capisco se sono io che non l'ho letto con la giusta attenzione o se davvero tutte le battaglie sono viste dall'alto, riassumibili in vaghi spari, vaghe urla, vaga rabbia e vaghe corse.E non capisco la necessità di chiamare il protagonista «the youth», quasi mai per nome, e di scrivere i dialoghi il più realisticamente e quindi incomprensibilmente possibile.Ma poco importa, è tutto finito: Henry è diventato un buon soldato e io spero di aver imparato la lezione. It was OK, but I wasn't thrilled with it. I remember having to read this for middle school and I pretty much felt the same way then. Decades have only changed my point of view of Henry as "my peer" when I originally read this, to one where he is now "the youth". The descriptive fighting scenes were more than adequate and actually made the story bearable. The dialogue was challenging, but realistic nevertheless. A good ole coming of age war story set smack in the middle of the Civil War.

What do You think about The Red Badge Of Courage (2000)?

This was brutal. Brutally boring. I can't believe the boys wanted to finish it.

This is a great book about the Civil War. Young readers would really enjoy it.

Thought provoking and uncomfortably familiar.
