And then, you get to the apex and the story takes over. So much so, that the first half of the book was like a marathon uphill bike ride, to be endued one more page, one more chapter. Dali writes as he paints pulling rich and saturated details from every situation, character and location. That's when it became apparent that the romanticized and drawn out descriptions were a false pretext, a deceptive ta It was an epic task to complete this book and I must say that it truly damns everyone in it. It was an epic task to complete this book and I must say that it truly damns everyone in it. Our parties prefer the well-paid ignonimity of bourgeoisification of a miner to the noble and well-to-do austerity of our peasants, for they are the ones who systematically vote against armament plans!.

But this is the second time I do this with this book and I think it deserves one twinkling little star.īefore I go, read this passage from the book to take a taste how tough it was for me, a person who previously this year has read Ulysses and The Canterbury Tales in Middle English! I don't agree in awarding a book you did not finish with low rating.

Now the story is not developed enough to know what's going to happen, but the best that can happen to these people is an atomic bomb to exterminate the shit out of them. Tiring descriptions, extremely tough vocabulary (I think he done this in purpose) and of course uninteresting dialogues.

They are about politics in France in the 1930's, a part of history that is important especially for our times, but personally I don't really give a fuck.

So this book is gonna get donated and simply get the fuck off my shelves! As a more experienced reader I thought it might be easier this time around. This time, I decided to try again for a second time. So in 2014 in a book market I saw his only novel Hidden Faces (or should I say Hidden Feces) and I decided to buy it and read it.

THE PERSISTENCE OF MEMORY MEANING FACE MOVIE
I have many books about him, about his art, a dossier with prints of his famous paintings, I visited an exhibition in London about him, full with his paintings and bizarre objects and sculptures, I did a project in Art at school, I saw his movie with Luis Buñuel Un chien Andalou, documentaries, interviews, videos. I am since high-school a great fan of Salvador Dalí. DNF! DNF!! DNF!!! I Did Not Finish this book.
