well, he must develop himself throughout the novel, that is what distinguishes a good book from the bad one. But what do you mean by "slipping between the cracks"? Can you explain it...
Then, it's of matter of innocence. Yep, it helped, I never though of it this way.
Thank you for interpretation, as it turned out I was mistaken, perhaps, because of the translation of the title,...
well, of course, it's like with all of us: usually we're just running from our mistakes and try our hardest to forget about it. It's very difficult to confess yourself in your mistakes, moreover face...
I watched Equilibrium and one character there read a piece from one of Yeats' poems:
...But I, being poor, have only my dreams;
I have spread my dreams under your feet;
Tread softly because you...
Because of what they contributed to their country, what they gave to the people of their countries, what they wrote about, what they do to be heard and how do they differ from other poets.
For...
never heard of it - could you tell me more about their relationships???
I didn't know where to place this thread so I posted it here.
Since the title seems symbolic to me I wonder what does it mean.
Does it denote the main character as the "catcher" and the rye stands...
I wanted but I didn't find it in the stores =(

I don't know what's this, but I truly hope it will help.
you've been given so much advice, so I just wanted to correct someone here:
The ring of the Nibelungs (Der Ring Des Nibelungen), and I would actually advice you to watch the like-named movie (or a...
Well, when Jim and Tom rafted down the river, it did represented freedom...
you decide for yourself what is important to you to understand the novel.
But if all a teacher do is only gets you...
I remember giving up on a book because the writer proved to be a homosexual (e.g. gay), moreover he exposed his likings on the paper. While reading I couldn't get rid of the feeling of being dirty so...
well, in addition I'd have advised you to read a little about the history of the time the book was written - in most cases it really helps 'cos one way or another authors in their books tend to cover...

don't know why I didn't like Montag (if you're talking about 451 Farenheit). Farber appealed more to me, though while reading the novel I felt compassion to Guy, too.

though I never read this novel, I heard some about Alyosha, that he is a good character. Well, anyway I'll find out it myself in winter, when I read it. Thanks)
Ivan from what novel?
I hate Ewels from "To kill a Mockingbird", and Alden Pyle from "The Quite American", though I liked him at first.
well, I'm more simple)
1) the Bible for children :)
2) Pushkin's fairy-tales
3) Hans Christian Andersen's fairy-tales
4) fairy-tales from all over the world
5) Martian's Chronicles by Bradbury)
I bet nobody knows this character: he is french, he has moustache, a faithful dog and a and a more faithful sword. Ladies and gentlemen - Jean de Pardaiyan is at your service!)))
cross it off then =)
well, I'd give u a piece of advise: don't judge the book basing on smb's opinions, read it yourself and then decide if it's worth reading, so in your place I wouldn't have been...
well, I know I was dwelling on the importance of every book, still to me the worst is Marcise de Sade. In Russian his name sounds magically and I was enchanted by it only I didn't expect that his...
No, I believe, not only alienation, but the surrealistic atmosphere, the merge of the main hero with the writer himself and the writer being the observer - these are the features of a book of the...
Me neither, so I'll write only my opinion on this:
I read some about "betnieks" (I remember calling them like this) and postmodernism (I don't see how they differ) and I might say the novel...
to me is one of the best historic novels is "Peter 1" by Alexey Tolstoy.
