Ma première critique littéraire: Le monde au bout du Monde par Luis Sepúlveda (Partie II)

En plus, quand Nilssen raconte l'histoire de sa vie au narrateur, il dit: que «j'étais un homme habitué à la solitude et je me méfiais du monde». Il dit comment sa mère devait se cacher comme un animal blessé dans leur bateau chaque fois qu'ils approchaient d'un port. Elle avait raison. Sa mère étaient été «la victime et le témoin d'un des grands génocides de l'histoire moderne». Les Occidentaux ont fait chassé les Indiennes dans des conditions déplorables / inacceptables dans les maniérés le plus dépravé imaginable. Malheureusement, ces crimes de l'histoire, qui sont souligné par évoqués dans le roman, sont relativement peu connus de nombreux. La tristesse de Nilssen est juste un morceau est de ces cultures anciennes est et indigènes (de la Patagonie), presque oublié de la mémoire collective.

En outre, Nilssen se sent un affinité lien fort avec la mer et le monde australe, attristé et endurci par sa vie (qui est attristé? Nilssen ou le monde austral?). Il trouve refuge / réconfort / force sa résolution, comme le narrateur, dans la lutte contre la destruction de la mer, symbolisée par la presque quasi extinction des baleines. Cette grandes espèces d'animaux est le fil conducteur motif qui attache le entre les différentes parties du livre la narratif et les thèmes principaux. La chasse brutale des baleines et la bataille naissante le combat naissant/embryonnaire de Greenpeace et les ainsi que des autres organisations environnementales contre leur extinction imminente est une histoire allégorique de la destruction de l’environnement par l'humanité moderne, présentée sous diverses formes / manifestations qui est là avec multiple manifestations dans le roman.

Cependant, je ne voudrais pas recommander ce roman avant que je lise des autres romans avec les même thèmes (a bit clumsy. Instead: Je pense qu'il est préférable de lire d'abord d'autres romans qui portent sur le même sujet.). Par exemple, les romans de Francisco Coloane sont davantage plus recommandés par beaucoup de lecteurs en ligne*. Moi aussi, je pense que il y a beaucoup trop de détails sur «l'énumération fastidieuse des innombrables canaux et fjords*» et moins de l'accent le roman est moins axé sur les quelques personnages et leur évolution à travers l'histoire potentiel pour développement. En tout cas, j'appréciais ai apprécié ce roman, principalement grâce aux thèmes abordés. ces sujets qui était Ce fut une expérience nouvelle et enrichissante assez nouvelle exploration pour moi.

Ma première critique littéraire: Le monde au bout du Monde par Luis Sepúlveda (Partie I)

Le monde au bout du Monde est un roman de Luis Sepúlveda traduit de l’espagnol en français. Ce roman est le deuxième roman en français que j'ai lu, après L’étranger par Albert Camus. C'était un plaisir parce que c'était le bon niveau pour pour moi, sauf quelques mots spécifiques maritimes en relation/rapport avec la marine qui étaient un peu spécifique !

Il s'agit d'un journaliste et activiste chilienne exilé à Hambourg qui revient en Patagonie, la terre de sa première grande aventure en tant que jeune reporter quand il était jeune : à seize ans, après avoir il avait lu «Moby Dick», il part en Patagonie pour joindre des baleiniers. Après cette introduction ouverture, le narrateur nous raconte l'histoire d'un baleiner japonais qui fait un étrange naufrage dans l’extrême sud de la Patagonie. c'est les actions Les aventures/le périple de ce bateau japonais qui incite/pousse notre narrateur à mener l’enquête en Patagonie. Le roman est un étrange mélange entre un thriller, une exploration écologique et une aventure maritime.

Pendant cette historie Au cours de l'histoire, on le lecteur rencontre mon personnage préféré, de Capitaine Jorge Nilssen, qui est le fils d'un marin danois et d'une Indienne ona. Le capitaine nous dirige envers l'ennemi qui est le bateau-usine japonais et il nous raconte une sélection d'es anecdotes pénétrant (fascinantes? / déroutantes? / remarquables?) de sa vie. Nilssen est l'incarnation de beaucoup de ces thèmes du roman. Pour commencer, le roman idéalise le personnage de le seul mariner du marin solitaire  à une époque maritime qui n’existe plus aujourd'hui OU bien révolue. Par exemple, Nilssen raconte que la modernisation du monde maritime a tué «l’envoûtement des océans».

The Chamber. A review of the novel by John Grisham

Hi guys, how are u!!! Today I want to share with you my review about the novel "the Chamber" by John Grisham. I finished this reading it a few days ago and I'd like to explain why I liked it my opinion about that.

Please, If you correct my mistakes I will be very grateful with you. This is Here is my review.

The Chamber. By Jonh Grisham. A Review.

“The Chamber” (in reference with to the American Gas Chamber) is a famous novel by John Grisham (one of his best-sellers). The book is not new, it was written –and published- in 1991 and it immediately became a hit in the market, the succesfull was so high it was so successful that Hollywood did made an expensive film about it only a few years later.

The novel is set in Memphis –Tennessee- during the years 90s, 80s and 70s, and the plot tells is about the last days of the life of Sam Cayham, a member of the criminal organization Klu Klux Klan who 26 years ago earlier helped to other Klasman to put a bomb in Mr. Krammer’s office (a Jewish lawyer who lived in Memphis). As a result of that terrorist act Mr. Krammer was died but, unfortunately, the bomb killed not only he not only killed him, but his two children’s were murdered too. During the last day, a young and brilliant lawyer (Adam Halls) would try to avoid the execution, this lawyer had an astonishing secret, he was the grandson of a death row inmate.

This novel it’s is a great story about the importance of life the live and shows how difficult it is for the human being to find justice. The story in not absolutely unpredictable and the author is are able to carry on transport the reader back to an ancient world in which racism, hatred and violence existed but, despite of all this, love eventually triumphs arrive to, and it finally changed the life of the character.

In conclusion, I would entirely recommend this reading the book because it is highly enjoyable, in some points it is also partly funny too and the story can change our point of view about the judicial and political system in the USA, the performance of the lawyer and most importantly, it shows us how people who doesn’t don't have anything in their life can enjoy with small details things like the moon, the friendship, the sunrise or the water from (the rattling sound of) the rain bashing  / hitting against a the window pane.

Tesla, Obama and the environment

Hello guys, I have just written an essay about the environment. I hope you will enjoy it with this, I can asure you because I think this is really interesting.

Please, if you observe spot some any mistake, I ask you that, please, write a correction do correct it. Thanks a lot of. for your help.

Recently, we are listening a lot of people there has been much debate in the media around the fact who is trying to show that we are not doing anything to avoid the destruction of our planet as a result of consequence of the harmful overexploitation of the environment. (the sentence is a bit too long in English. Another alternative could be: <em>Our inability to cope with the destruction of the environment is due to overexploitation of our natural resources and has lately been the subject of much debate in the media</em>.)
I would like to remark refer to the last statements of Jeremy Paxtman, who was talking the past last week in a BBC TV program from the BBC. According to him with his words, is true that the industry is today generating today a lot of greenhouse gasses, chemical wastes, high levels of carbon dioxide – so enough that more than what our nature can not absorber / recycle - and other toxic liquids and rubbish which are causing the global warming and the future destruction of the human life. But not only the industry is not the only responsible, people also contribute too with to this problem. We prefer to use gas and travel by car or by plane or our gas boiler instead of to using other renewable energy sources, and therefore, we are responsible of for the high rates of pollution and the smog on our planet.

However, we must explain too it is also worth mentioning that today there are a lot of people who are extremely worried with about the global warming and they are trying to change the law and make introduce specifics regulation to protect our environment. For example, the President from of the USA, Barack Obama, has just announced a new regulation which will be change the carbon industry in the next decades. In At the same time, The European Union is discussing about the importance of new sources of energy, and other actors agent are is worry too also worried about this problem. For example the Company Tesla is manufacturing cars, a car manufacturer, has developed ? (not quite clear what you want to say here) an new public transport system which is very similar with to the traditional railway service train, and other new machines capable to fly of flying in which, a simple panel solar or electricity battery is the unique source of energy.

Finally, I think that in the future people and governments will keep on worrying about the environment and, the most importantly importance it has for the public opinion, the more efficient the industry will be, and the more sustainable / energy-efficient machines companies will make new machines which will not harm the environment. Our planet and all of us will continue to live.

Great text - well done!

Introducing myself

Bonsoir, je m'appelle Nagham et j'ai 20 ans. J'habite au Liban dans une petite ville qui s'appelle Aramoun. Je suis étudiante à l'université libanaise.J'étudie l'informatique.

Petite différence entre Libanais et libanais: le premier (avec majuscule) est l'habitant, le deuxième (sans majuscule) est l'adjectif.

Par exemple:

Je suis Libanaise (quand il s'agit de la personne).

J'aime la culture libanaise (adjectif dans ce cas).

Je ne suis jamais allée au Liban, mais j'adore la cuisine libanaise! :)

Bonne continuation

nowadays

This is my first note there here... 

It's sunny and warm in Moscow today, so my mood is good too I am in a good mood (more colloquial). although some a few days ago i felt bad - I can't get used to missing  my ex-boyfriend. I hope he'll come back, because I feel I think I love him...we have/are having some problems with because of our different religions, but everything will be wonderful in the end.

Nice text - I hope everything will be alright for you guys eventually!

Be aware of the difference between 'used to do' something and 'to be/get used to doing'. For example:

I used to smoke = I smoked in the past but I quit and now I don't smoke anymore. You need the INFINITIVE.

At first I didn't like the school I am in but now I am getting used to it = I now am familiar with it. It was hard at the beginning but I feel a bit better now being at the school. You need the ING FORM.

Another example: I am getting used to wearing glasses = meaning I feel now more comfortable wearing glasses, it has become a habit.

Another thing: 'but' is used only to separate two chunks of sentences. it is never used at the beginning of a new sentence in writing. For example:

I preferred the blue skirt, but the red one was less expensive. NOT I preferred the blue skirt. But the red one was less expensive.

If you want to make two sentences, you have to use other linking words such as 'however'. For example:

I preferred the blue skirt. However, I chose the red one because it was less expensive.

Hope it helps! :)
