In the Great Gatsby, F Scott Fitzgerald created a wonder. He described a world and a fiend we can all relate to, that of frustrated and not fully requitted love, and he described it with all the beauty that anybody using the English language could muster. His message was the we are all fighting against the tide of time, which beats us back ever more forcefully with the progressing years, and yet we all feel that our youth, our elixir, our perfect moment and strength of Orient is within our grasp. Gatsby was a man who had lost once, and yet felt the compulsion to fight again, for the ultimate prize that would revoke his past defeat. A simple and bewilderingly focused passion that in the end destroyed the man as only it could. That was Gatsby's only goal, but in stripping his life ... Read More

To Kill a Mockingbird (Collector's Edition) Lone fathers and their kids have been a hit in many movies. I have severl examples, like, Ryan and Tatum O'Neil in Paper Moon, Jon Voight and Ricky Schroeder in the re-make of 'The Champ' and Dustin Hoffman and Justin Henry in Kramer vs Kramer. Gregory Peck, won an Academy Award, for playing a sole parent, and he's never been better. The script for this movie was based upon Harper Lee's sensitive and intelligent novel set in racially-torn Alabama. Gregory Peck, plays Atticus Finch, a wise lawyer bravely raising his two kids Jem(Phillip Alford) and Scout(Mary Badham) in the hot-headed Southern town. The crux of the plot is Finch's defence of a colored man accused of rape. The film was put together by two excellent film-makers, producer Alan J. Pakula ... Read More

... mainly because it is such a good story and so well written. Come to think of it, not much of this book is really about the rape and crime. It is about childhood, growing up and growing prejudice. It is about not only racism but also feminism. Scout, the main character, has such a lovely personality and I really started to like her. It was almost like I knew her and parts of me fell in love with Jem, her brother. I found parts of the slang a bit hard to read and it took a good 100 pages before the story had me that intrigued that I couldn't put it down. Sometimes you read a book and you really do realize why some books last with us and literature forever and why some don't. This book deals with human joy and suffering, ideals and rebels, crime and punishment and of course of race and sad part of the ... Read More

5.Fahrenheit 451 (Spanish Language Edition) by: Ray Bradbury January 03, 2006

Independientemente de la historia el mensaje que transmite es el que vale mucho la pena (aunque la historia se va facil), me parece una obra indispensable en cualquier biblioteca.

6.EL Viejo y el mar (Contemporanea) by: Ernest Hemingway May 03, 2005

Hemingway nos da un rrecorrido por el interesante mundo de "la mar" haciendonos identificar con el personaje principal y su pasion por la pesca, quiza esta es una manera de expresar una de las pasiones del escritor e introducirnos a un mundo que puede ser desconocido al principio pero del cual muchos terminamos entendiendo mas al final de la historia. La hisoria de Santiago puede ser la historia de todos nosotros que dia con dia luchamos por aquello que creemos aun cuando parezca que perdemos la batalla en el camino.

cuando lei este libro hasta llegue a sonar unas cuantas veces con estar en la carretera polvosa camino a otra comunidad donde pudiese conseguir un mejor empleo, y durmiendo en una hooverville. la historia es fascinante y es tan buena que la novela no parece las paginas parecen cortas. la familia que emigra, la lucha por un trabajo, la muerte, el crecimiento y distaciamiento de la familia. esta novela pinta un cuadro dramatico aunque lleno de hermosura narrativa de la gran depresion de los anos treinta, narrada en un lenguaje humano. es una de las mejores de este autor. muy recomendada.. LUIS MENDEZ

I read this book for my intermediate Spanish class, and I found it to be a wonderful challenge because it expanded my vocabulary and helped me uncover the different ways things can be taken in Spanish. I liked how poetic the book is, though it was a bit confusing at times. It gives great insight into the issues faced by women and the lower classes. It's especially a great novel for those who are from Chciago! Leí este libro por mi clase de español y fue un gran desaño porque mi vocabulario aumentó y discubrí modas diferentes usar las palabras y las frases en español. Me gusta la carácter poética del libro, aunque algunos partes están confusos. Lo da buen perspicacia en las cuestiónes de las mujeres y las pobres. Especialmente, este libro es fantástico spor las personas son de Chicago.

This book is a jewl and I congratulate Amazon for having it among their books. People should learn about wars, dictatorships, and horrors that occurred in other countries that dismembered a number of generations; people that had to leave their home land and create new ones in strange lands. The courrage of these people and their influence in other countries, such as mine: the Dominican Republic, and our family that comes from one of those silent heroes that believed in a better way of life for alls, without the wrongly used label of being "reds".
