Lina Kostenko. Zapysky ukrains'koho samashedshoho. (Notes by the Ukrainian Lunatic) | | Track Reviews (5) |
|
|
"This is the first new book by Lina Kostenko during the recent 20 years of silence and her first prose novel. The novel is written in the person of a 35-year old computer programmer, who against the background of his personal drama captiously, deeply and painfully scans all dislocations of our globalized time. In the world of redundant (des)information and total alienation, he – a hostage of global absurdities – aims to overcome the communicative abyss between the man and woman, between the family and profession, between Ukraine and the world. Speaking about genre stylistics, "Notes by the Ukrainian Lunatic" is a saturated mix of fiction, internal diaries, modern chronicles and publicism." In Ukrainian. Illustrations: Vladyslav Erko (headpieces) Type of the edition: hard cover Format: 130x200 mm Number of pages: 416
Publisher: A-BA-BA-HA-LA-MA-HA Catalogue number: ISBN 9789667047887 Year: 2011

She is referred to as "Stefanyk wearing a skirt", the Ukrainian Marquez or Faulkner – but the author on her part resolutely rejects any comparisons. No other modern Ukrainian writer has such a stable reputation of a chronicler of general human values and of an advocate of values of the individual on the backdrop of history as Maria Matios has.

Externally, the manner remained the same – unhurried, free and fluid, relaxed. But only externally – because inside there is even though an unhurried but clear pulse, there is tension, there is even quite a hard structure, the logic of illumination change. And there is considerably more "November-ness", however strange this might be, than in "Requiem...".

Отримав вчасно, книга в чудовому стані. Вже прочитав половину, повністю згоден з автором: хіба такої України ми сподівались? Не згоден з шановною п.Білик про заполітизованість твору. На мою думку цінність "Записок" якраз в тому і полягає, що закликає нас українців прокинутись поки не пізно і дати підсрачника всім "табачникам", розмовляти та писати нашою мовою, почати поважати себе і тоді все буде. Визвольні змагання тільки починаються.

Мне понравился язык автора, его видение мира, но я представляла себе, что книга будет менее политизирована. После прочтения ее у меня осталось хорошее впечатление об авторе как о человеке, который мастерски владеет техникой написания прозы, как о человеке с богатым духовным миром.
Понравилась и подача романа как два в одном - политика и бытиё глазами простого человека.Так вот то, что видел и ощущал простой человек в своей жизни - впечатлило. А описаниями политических украинских перепетий, на мой взгляд, чересчур перегружено произведение, и под конец остался осадок чтения прессы или прослушивания ежедневных новостей.(Чем мы уже отравлены в достаточной мере, я имею ввиду негатив подачи).
Благодарю отправителя книги, она была прекрасно упакована и доставлена в идеальном виде почтой.
