Dat boek heb ik nu al een ruime week geleden uitgelezen, en ik ben nu bezig in:quote:Op zaterdag 27 januari 2007 11:37 schreef DaMart het volgende:
Ik lees nu 'Het Franciscus Verbond' van John Sack.
Ik dacht eerst dat het een soort Dan Brown kloon zou zijn, maar dat valt mee. Wat me wel aanspreekt is dat het een boek is dat zich in de 13e eeuw afspeelt, en eens niet in het hier en nu.
Ik heb even contact op genomen met de afdeling geniale boeken van het Nationaal Instituut der Boekologieleralij en ik vrees dat ik je moet melden dat boek waaruit bovenstaand citaat afkomstig is niet geniaal is, 't spijt me.quote:Op woensdag 3 januari 2007 21:57 schreef Claudia_x het volgende:

'Man, remember the Great Thinker we heard about in class last week?' he asks.
'The one that sounded like “Manual Cunt”?'
‘Yeah, who said nothing really happens unless you see it happen.’
‘All I remember is asking Naylor if he ever heard of a Manual Cunt, and him going, “I only drive automatics.” We dropped the biggest fucken load.’
Jesus clicks his tongue. ‘Shit, Vermin, you always only thinkin bout dropped loads. Just loads, and shit, and girl tangs. This is real, man. Manual Cunt asked the thing about the kitten – the riddle, that if there was a box with a kitten inside, and if the box also had an open bottle of death-gas or whatever, that the kitten’s definitely going to knock over at any moment…’
‘Whose kitten is this? I bet they’re pissed.’
‘Fuck, Verm, I’m serious. This is a real-time philosophy question. The kitten’s in this box, definitely gonna die at some moment, and Manual Cunt asks if it may as well be called dead already, technically, unless somebody’s there to see it still alive, to know it exists.’
‘Wouldn’t it be easier just to stomp on the fucken kitten?’
‘It’s not about wasting the kitten, asshole.’ You can tick Jesus off real easy these days. His logic got all serious.
‘What’s the fucken point, Jeez?’
He frowns and answers slowly, digging each word out with a shovel. ‘That if things don’t happen unless you see them happening – do they still happen if you know they’re gonna – but don’t tell nobody…?’
As the words reach my ears, the mausoleum shapes of Martirio High School slam into view through the trees. A bitty chill like a worm burrows through me.
Ik vond 'm ook tegenvallen.quote:Op maandag 12 februari 2007 12:32 schreef Akelalala het volgende:

Tot nu toe nog niet zo veel bijzonders. Wordt een beetje moe van de zogenaamd populaire hip-hop taal die ze gebruiken, maar goed, ben net begonnen, dus misschien wordt het nog wat
quote:In Cold Blood: A True Account of a Multiple Murder and Its Consequences, by American author Truman Capote, details the 1959 murders of Herbert Clutter, a wealthy farmer from Holcomb, Kansas; his wife, Bonnie; their 16-year-old daughter, Nancy; and their 15-year-old son, Kenyon, and the aftermath. Capote said that he had created a new type of book, the nonfiction novel, by applying traditional literary conventions to crime reporting. Critics have debated the degree to which Capote fabricated certain events in his book.
Capote learned of the quadruple slaying from a news article in The New York Times. He decided to go to Kansas and write about the murders, even before the killers, Richard "Dick" Eugene Hickock and Perry Edward Smith, were captured. He brought his childhood friend and fellow author Harper Lee with him. Together they interviewed the local residents and the investigators assigned to the case. Capote and Lee took thousands of pages of notes, and Capote spent years working on the book, which was serialized during 1965 in The New Yorker. After the book was published that same year, it was adapted into both a theatrical film drama and a TV movie. See In Cold Blood (film).
Dus ik kan de hoop dat het beter wordt maar opgeven?quote:

Best leuk? Wel verfrissend? Vermakelijk? Hoezeer kun je de plank misslaan?quote:Op dinsdag 13 februari 2007 21:23 schreef justshutup het volgende:
