Vay. Bazen bu kadar uzun kitaplar şaşırtıcıdır çünkü çok zenginler, asla bitmemelerini istemem. Uzunluk ya da kelime hazinesi ile korkutmayın - yakında ayarlayacaksınız.

Read as the first book for my new bookclub-- a bunch of suburban moms! It was fun to discuss, but I didn't think the book was very well written... I did enjoy the spirit of what she was trying to say, though. I liked best her line: "Chinese parents assume strength in their children; Western parents assume fragility." That speaks to me and will likely impact how I try to raise my toddler!

Well... I didn't like it really much. Better, of course, than "Mario and the magician" _the short story bonus in the edition I read. I can't express why this book gave me nothing _maybe it's due to Mann's treatment of time in his narrations, which keeps me out of the story. Anyway, I still keep in my to-read shelf "The magical mountain" :) ******** Pues no me gustó, la verdad. Me gustó más que la narración breve "Mario y el mago" que venía con la novela en mi edición (la de RBA), que no había por dónde cogerla. No sé por qué no me gustó realmente. Creo que se debe al trtamiento del tiempo que hace Mann, que me saca fuera de la historia constantemente. De todos modos tengo pensado seguir leyéndole.
