13 posts | 26 read | 8 to read
A histria de Hans-Thomas e seu pai, que cruzam a Europa, da Noruega Grcia, procura da mulher que os deixou oito anos antes. Um livro misterioso transformar a viagem do garoto numa autntica iniciao busca do conhecimento. "Voc j pensou que num baralho existem muitas cartas de copas e de ouros, outras tantas de espadas e de paus, mas que existe apenas um curinga?", pergunta sua me certa vez a jovem protagonista de O mundo de Sofia. Esse o ponto de partida deste outro livro de Jostein Gaarder, a histria de um garoto chamado Hans-Thomas e seu pai, que cruzam a Europa, da Noruega Grcia, procura da mulher que os deixou oito anos antes. No meio da viagem, um livro misterioso desencadeia uma narrativa paralela, em que mitos gregos, maldies de famlia, nufragos e cartas de baralho que ganham vida transformam a viagem de Hans-Thomas numa autntica iniciao busca do conhecimento - ou filosofia. O dia do curinga a histria de muitas viagens fantsticas que se entrelaam numa viagem nica e ainda mais fantstica - e que s pode ser feita por um grande aventureiro: o leitor. Ttulo Altamente Recomendvel pela Fundao Nacional do Livro Infantil e Juvenil - FNLIJ 1996, categoria traduo/jovem

I am posting one book per day from my extensive collection. No description. No explanation. Some will be old. Some will be new. Don't judge me. I have a lot of books. Join the fun if you want.

1. Tagged, translated from Norwegian

2. My degree was in medieval languages so that involved quite a lot of languages and very different forms of literature! I did Old and Middle English and bits of Welsh, Scots, Latin and Saxon which was fantastic I was very lucky to get to learn them. I‘m currently learning modern Italian but it‘s going very slow

3. Japanese, I love Japanese novels but the language is haaard

BookmarkTavern Wow! Your degree must have taken a lot of hard work. That is really impressive! Thank you for sharing! 5y
Texreader Sounds like you followed in the footsteps of Tolkien! How awesome!! 5y

Trying to get back into posting regularly! I‘m stuck in a hospital waiting room all day (long story, not coronavirus and not me that‘s unwell) which is quite stressful but does translate to a lot of reading time at least! This book is so weird it gives me something to focus on when I‘m anxious which is wonderful

Liz_M I am sorry to hear that someone close to you is unwell. I am sure your presence is appreciated. Take care of yourself as well. 5y
BarbaraBB It sounds harsh. I am glad the book is a consolation for you. Take care! Sending love 💚🍀 5y
CarolynM Hope you don't have to be at the hospital for too long. Sending love💕 5y

"The inner box unpacks the outer at the same time as the outer box unpacks the inner. The solitaire is a family curse, there is always a joker to see through the delusion." Two parts of the Joker Game that used to hang on my bedroom wall. @Buechersuechtling reminded me of Jostein Gaarder and all of his weirdass books, Solitaire Mystery being my favourite.

Thanks to @BookishMe I jumped on the “I-spy”-train. So, as assigned, #iSpy a book with a door on the cover.

Quite soon after I was nudged I had a rough idea of which book could work but I was surprised how easy it indeed has been for me. ☺️

Who is spying a book with a name in its title, @Angeles

BookishMe That is such a clever design! 😍😍 5y
BookishMe What is it about? Any translated version in English? 5y
Buechersuechtling @BookishMe Forgive me that I just paste you a Wikipedia-Link but I realised yesterday that I asked myself the same question. I almost completely forgot about the plot. So I decided that it might soon be time for one of my rare re-reads – and that‘s why I don‘t want to spoil myself when sharing the plot. 👉🏼 https://bit.ly/2JDXkp3 5y
BookishMe Thanks! Fascinating plot... Reminds me of this fantasy 5y

1) a YA book, but one of the best books anyway. The solitaire is a family curse. The outer box contains the inner box at the same time as the inner box contains the outer box.
2) shape-shifting
3) sagittarius
4) buy new sneakers, drink coffee, rest my ankle. Take inventory of my plant pots. Have cramps.
5) okay

Mehso-so

I forgot to mention this one - I read the whole thing on my flight to NYC. It was ok, but not my fave. Probably wouldn't have finished bc I don't really like magical metaphors, but it's for book club. :)

Sofie'nin Dünyası ile birlikte okuyunca bana yazarın döndürüp döndürüp aynı hikayeyi aynı düşünceyi aynı felsefeyi okuyucuya aktardığını hissettirdi.
Öyle yerler vardı ki cümleler neredeyse birebir aynıydı.
Felsefeyi hiç sıkmadan aktarmasını ve düşündürmesini sevdim yazarın ama tek bir düşünce yapısı etrafında dönmesinden hoşlanmadım. #kitap #book #read
