Ortodoks ve çok fazla. Sadece hepsini bir yere koyan bir şey istedim, hahamların neden aile saflığı yasaları ile ilgili belirli “zorluklar” yaptığını ve gerekçelerinin nereden geldiğini açıklıyor. Deena Zimmerman'ın kitabı hemen hemen bunu yapıyor, ancak bu kitabın kapsamının, her hahamın konuyla ilgili söylediklerini dikkate alacak kadar geniş olmadığını da not ediyor. Bu daha bilimsel tipte hacimler alacaktı. Bu konuda bilimsel çalışmalar tam olarak kaçınmak istediğim şeyler. Zimmerman, bu kitabın çiftlerin bundan kaçınmasına yardımcı olacağını umuyor ve yine de basit bir kurallar listesinden daha fazla uygulama açıklaması sunuyor. Bence bu konuda başarılı, ama hala sorularım kaldı. Bu kitap gerçekten Ortodoks Yahudiliğinde yetişme veya arka plana sahip kadınlar (veya çiftler) için yazılmıştır. Ve yazar, İbranice, İbranice takvimi ve okurun tarafında rabbinik traktör hakkında bilgi sahibi olduğunu varsayar. Yahudilikte iyi yetişmiş ve temellendirilmiş biri için tavsiye ederim, ancak Rabbin / İbranice düşüncesinde daha az eğitim görmüş insanlar için buna benzer bir kitap olmasını isterdim.

JR Ward's Black Dagger Brotherhood series has been really great so far. This book, however, was just a bit longer and more drawn out that I felt necessary to get the point across. I love reading about all of the brothers and Phury was no exception. It just seemed like a longer story than necessary. Not that this will keep me from reading on, mind you! Have finished through book 8 and am anxiously awaiting #9 to arrive on my doorstep any day now!

Hamish Clayton’s debut novel Wulf is a seductively raw story, entwining a primitively lush landscape like a vine in the mind as events based on New Zealand’s early history move slowly to their horrific conclusion. There is a growing sense of menace as insouciant sailors come to trade in the early 19th century. Cowell, the ship’s trading master, has been to these islands before and he regales his shipmates with stories that should make them wary but they have no real idea what they are in for. The naïve narrator – called Davis Jones [1] as an unfunny joke by the crew on the Dragon though he’s otherwise un-named - tells this story as sailors do, foreshadowing events in the form of omens, symbols and shipboard superstitions which feed this atmosphere of menace. His naiveté is exacerbated by the fact that he, like the rest of the crew, is trying to interpret Maori culture only through his existing ideas about history and culture. Clayton occasionally has a bit of fun with this (as when they try to rationalise the Maori having the same name for the sun, Ra, as the Egyptians do), but most of the time it’s an acknowledgement that rough-and-ready traders are not best placed to negotiate the complex waters of First Contact.

Spotted this on the display table at the library The storyline is how 6 US Embassy personnel escaped being captured by the Iranian students when the American Embassy was taken over. I put it on hold. Will update when I have read it.
