Moby Dick-Herman Melville

Synopsis

This book tells the story of a young boy, who wants to have adventures. This book is autobiographyc. The protagonist is Herman Melville, who is also the writer. He tells his story, wich is about a 15 year. When he was that age he left school and started working. He travelled to England in a ship. There, he discovered his passion for the ocean. For that reason, he decided to become a harpooner of a ship called "Pequod". The "Pequod" sailed and all the adventure began.

Personal Opinion

I think that this book is a book hat shows us the consequences of hunting whales. How people get obssesed with hunting whales and sometimes people died hunting them. This book also, tells us the harpooners daily life, how hard it can be. I think that the story is very well told, but I think that it's a bit repetitive, because it is all about hunting whales.

Iritzi kritikoa

Izugarri gustatu zait ipuina, benetako istorio bat da eta gaur egun horrelako kasuak ematen jarraitzen direla ziur nago. Horrek zer pentsatzeak ematen dit. Nahiago izango nuke horrelako istorio bat fikzioa izatea eta ez benetako historia batean oinarrituta egotea, lotsagarria iruditu baitzait Nadiak jasan behar izan dituen egoerak. Izenburua oso egokia da. Nadiak duen turbante horren azpian sekretu handia ezkutatzen baita.

Liburu hau asko gustatu zait orokorrean, hala ere gauza batzuk ez zaizkit hainbeste gustatu. Istorioa nola dagoen girotuta gustatu zait gehien. Film eta liburu gehienetan New York hiriaren alde onak besterik ez dira agertzen, baina liburu honetan, New York hiriaren alde iluna oso ondo transmititzen du eta hiriaren alde txarra ezagutu dezakegu. Bestalde, idazlea pertsonaiak deskribatzeko gehiegi luzatzen dela iruditzen zait. Baina, hala ere, liburu hau irakurtzea gomendatzen dut.

Gerra Karlistako garaian, etxeko giroa hoztu eta jarrera kontrajarriak hartu zituzten anaiek; bata, liberala; bestea, karlista; eta hirugarrena, gerraren aurkakoa. Horrez gain, anaia baten heriotzak eta Julia izeneko emakume batenganako maitasunak liskarrak areagotuko ditu. Anaien arteko liskarrek bizitza osoan zehar jarraituko dute, egunerokotasuna zailtzen eta elkarrekiko gorrotoa areagotzen. Gorroto horixe bera izango da, hain zuzen ere, nobela guztian arazoen oinarri eta ondorioa.

Irakurtzen ohituta dagoen jendeari gomendatuko nioke eta noski nobela historikoak gogoko dituenari.

Sinopsia

Eleberri hau Karlisten eta Liberalen garaian kokatzen da.Trinido eta Zipriano Babilonia baserriko anaia bikiak dira. Betidanik elkarrekin ibili dira, baina zenbait arrazoirengatik, beraien arteko norgehiagoka hazten joan da. Horrez gain, bi anaiak emakume beraz maitemintzen dira, Margaritaz, hain zuzen, eta bere maitasuna lortzeko edozer gauza egiteko prest daude. Biak oso gizon ausartak eta indartsuak izan arren, Trinido izan da beti garaile eta Ziprianok bere aurka oso gogor borrokatuko du. Familia honetan dauden gorabehera guztiak ezagutzeko eta XIX. mendeko Euskal Herriari buruz gehiago jakiteko, eleberri hau oso aproposa da, benetan. 

Iritzi kritikoa

Babilonia liburua oso interesgarria iruditu zait. Entretenigarria izateaz gain, garai horretan zeuden arazoak ulertzeko ezin hobea. Euskal Herriko historia ezagutu nahi baduzu, asko lagunduko dizu eta horretaz gain, gaur egun daukagun bizitza baloratzeko baliagarria da. Bestalde, gai unibertsal bat ere lantzen da bertan: familien arteko arazoak. Ez gaude ohituta horrelako historiak entzuten, baina pentsatzen duguna baino ohikoagoak dira hauek. Benetan gomendagarria dela iruditzen zait.

Iritzi kritikoa

Gehien gustatu zaidana idazleak istorio honen bitartez garaiko gizarteari egiten dion kritika da: Gizonezkoak direla boterea dutenak eta dirua dela bizitza honetako garrantzitsuena kritikatzen du. Oro har, liburua irakurtzea erraza da, baina deskribapenekin luzatu egiten da idazlea, eta batzuetan astuna egin daiteke. Nik deskribapen horiek laburtuko nituzke.Izenburuari dagokionez, “Kez egindako erretratua”, erabat aproposa dela iruditzen zait. Izan ere, Dannyk benetakoa bezala ez den pertsona bat bezala irudikatzen du Krassy. Pasarte interesgarriena, krimenarena iruditu zait, amaiera arte ez baita esaten ea Danny atxilotua izaten den. Pasarte horrek erabat aldatzen du istorioa, bai Danny eta bai Krassyren biziak erabat aldatzen direlako harrezkero.

Iritzi kritikoa

Hasieratik amaierara tentsio handia mantentzen duen liburua da. Trama ondo pentsatua dago eta pertsonaiak garatuak eta anitzak dira. Pertsonai nagusiaren (Leire Asiain) garapen psikologikoa sakon lantzen da istorioa garatzen den bitartean eta hizkuntza aberatsa erabiltzen du idazleak kontakizuna apaintzeko, baina hitz teknikoegiak erabili gabe, irakurleak ulertzeko modukoak. Alde kritikagarriena amaiera da, oso surrealista eta sinesgaitza baita, eta liburua errealitatearekiko fideltasuna mantentzen duen arren, amaiera oso surrealista eta sinesgaitza ematen dio idazleak nobelari.

Personal Opinion

I think this book is very interesting because it shows you how black people are not bad and how you can get things with non-violent actions and with patience, In my opinion, everybody should read this book.

Kutxidazu bidea Ixabel-Joxean Sagaztizabal

Sinopsia

Donostiako hemeretzi urteko gazte bat, Juan Martin Errazu, Tolosako Aranguren baserrira joaten dan udan, euskara ikasteko eta euskal kultura gehiago barneratzeko helburuarekin. Hasieran , baserriko bizitza zaila egingo zaio, ez baitzegoen ohituta halako lan gogorrak egitea. Ulertzeko zailtasunak izan zituen ere bai, abiadura handian hitz egiten baitzuten. Baserrian, Ixabel izeneko neska batek lagunduko dio egoerari aurre egiten. Juan Martin, Ixabelek egindako guztiaren ondorioz, beraz maitemintzen da. Hala ere, uda amaituko da eta etxera itzuli beharko du.

Iritzi kritikoa

Liburua nahiko barregarria da eta ongi transmititzen dio irakurleari euskal baserriko kultura. Algara egiteko apartekoa da eta guztiz gomendagarria iruditzen zait.

Pasaia Blues-Harkaitz Cano

Sinopsia

Istorio hau bi zatietan banatzen da. Alde batetik, Cesar Telleriaren istorioa kontatzen du. Hau poliziak salatutzat jotzen dituzten pertsonen aurpegiak topatzeaz arduratzen da. Istorioa aurrera doan ahala, ez du zorterik izango eta eskizofrenian eroriko da eta bere kasurik harrigarrienarentzat erantzun bat aurkitzearren edozer emango du.Beste aldetik, Olatz eta Martaren istorioa kontatzen da. Hauek komando bateko partaide dira Pasaiako pisu batean. Hsieran elkarbizitza euren artean ez dute ondo eramango, baina konponduk dira. Hauek Cesarren kasuarekin lotura bat erakusten dute istorioaren bukaeran.

Iritzi kritikoa

Istorio xelebrea da eta nolabaiteko zailtasunak erakusten ditu egoerak ulertzearren zenbait kasutan nire aburuz. Hala ere, misterioz beteriko kontakizuna denez, nolabaiteko grina sorrarazten du istorioa azkar bukatzeko eta zer gertatuko den jakiteko. Zeharo interesgarria da.

Musika Airean-Karmele Jaio

Sinopsia

Elenak leihotik begira igarotzen ditu egunak, kalera irten gabe, haren bizitzako momentu bakoitza oroituz. Honengatik, bere seme-alabek neskame bat ekarriko diote, honek etxetik ateratzera animatu eta bizipoza transmitituko diolakoan, baina zaila suertatuko zaio neskatxari Elenaren nortasun gogorra samurtzea.

Iritzi kritikoa

Eleberri honek sentimenduak ditu abiapuntutzat, liburua hunkigarri egiten dutenak. Izan ere, Elenaren istorio pertsonaletik abiatuta, gorrotoa eta iraganeko akatsak alde batera utziz, alaitasunez bizitzeko aldarrikapen hutsa da Karmele Jaioren liburu hau.

Berriro Itzuliko Balitz-Xabier Etxeberria

Sinopsia

Karlos Heinsborg uhartera abiatu da bere alaba jaioberriarekin, bere emaztea eta umearen ama zena hil ondoren. Horrenbestez, berak bakarrik egin beharko dio aurre umea zaindu eta, aldi berean, lan egiteari. Hala ere, arazo hauen garrantzia hutsala da gerora Karlosek aurre egin beharko dionarekin alderatuta, hilketen munduan sartuko baita bete-betean protagonista.

Iritzi kritikoa

Liburuaren hasierako pasarteak ez dira oso mamitsuak, pertsonaiak aurkeztu besterik ez baitira egiten. Hala ere, istorioak misterioaren eta hilketaren bidea hartzean, jakin-min izugarria eragiten du irakurlearengan eta liburua guztiz interesgarria bilakatzen da.
