A book a day Deep downturn

It has taken unreasonably long time for me to harrow me through this novel, it has - but as I mentioned previously, it has nothing to do with the book itself to make, but it has only to do with that I ended up in a tough, miserable lässvacka. The book is about a few different people's life stories, linked together by the crimes that Shay Bourne declaration d amour was sentenced to death. We follow June, who was married to Kurt Nealon and mother of Elizabeth - the two people who Shay shot. We get through June following her daughter Claire, born after the murders. Claire has a heart condition requiring heart transplantation, meaning that June is facing the prospect of losing another child. Besides declaration d amour Junes own story about what happened and happens, we will also follow Michael Lucius and Maggie. Michael declaration d amour is the young juror who was with Shay and sentenced to death, but now - eleven years later - is a priest and also the one who talks to Shay about salvation and penance. Lucius is a fellow prisoner to Shay, and through his story, we take note of what is happening around Shay inside the prison. Maggie is a lawyer, declaration d amour not Shay's original, declaration d amour but one who takes on his case when the date of execution approaches. One can imagine that this is a book about executions in general and Shays in particular, and it is true - but as the title indicates, it is also very much about Claire's need for a new heart. A Prison is a maximum security prison, but not so hermetically sealed that not the story of a young girl who, even before birth, lost his sister and father and now needs a new heart, not looking into. Shay decides that he wants to donate his heart to Claire, to somehow make amends to her murder - and that's where everything starts declaration d amour in earnest. Can you receive a heart from a murderer? Can you receive a heart from a murderer who killed people that you would live really close? Should I get decide whom you want to give her heart to? If it is the case that the simplest form of execution - lethal injection - destroys the heart, should you have the law on their side to require a different type of execution for transplant will be possible declaration d amour to implement? Thus, this story offers a number of issues to consider, both those that can be perceived declaration d amour as purely practical, but more so those that you want to mangle through several revolutions to the offering of such ethical and moral positions that they can not solving in a jiffy ... A small detail, which also makes it to this book is that Shay did not appear to be an evil, cold-blooded killer. Instead, it happens strange things in prison, after Shay has come there. If I remember correctly, was the first event to internationalize the water (in the taps in their individual cells) suddenly tasted and looked like wine. Then there was a dead bird Shay managed to revive again, even though it looked quite dead. And Lucius HIV, who appeared to be blown away. All these strange details, plus the fact that Shay says things that are reminiscent declaration d amour of early Christianity (and which appears to be on paper in a kind of side edition of the Bible, what never came into it that eventually became the Bible) - it makes people are starting to think of him as a savior, not a murderer. It seems quite unlikely, as I write about it this way, but it does not feel as weird and wacky as you read it. Promise! ;-) Then it's also inevitable, so that in this story there is another story; Shays own. It may not be the complete version until the book is much like the final - and perhaps it is not his full story even then. I recommend the vet this book! Hopefully in Swedish translation as well, so it becomes a little more accessible. declaration d amour English is not difficult in itself, but because the book is 460 pages are still some poking itself. Avoid getting into tough lässvacka during lecture declaration d amour time - it was bad! ;-) A big plus for the discussion questions for the end of the book; questions intended for a book club.
I have read all Picoults books that have been translated into Swedish, and I must say that she always has interesting issues in his books. Sometimes I think that the books feels a little shallow and verbose - and they're not the most literary works - but they are very easy to read, you always want to read on, and like I said, it is always interesting questions. Hope you are talking about is in Swedish! I read anything in my own language, it takes much longer for me to read in English. ReplyDelete
Yes, I think that I also have read all of her. The one I've liked least about is probably the one she is most famous for; Everything for my sister. I have another one in English just waiting - but I have to me that I have seen a recent translated. Then you have something to sink your teeth into! ;-) ReplyDelete
