Yesterday after school, Amy and i decided to go to the libarary to read some books. I thought that she is going to read some novel and i wanted to introduce some very good authors to her. But.. in the end, she went the cooking section. =_= and she borrowed a chinese novel. Quite touching though, she told me that the book is about Mother and Daughter.
Okay, so i looked around at the novels and i spotted this author, Nagub Mahfouz. He is a very famous literature and had won a Nobel Prize on 1988. Yes( one year before i was born). This book which i borrowed is titled,'Palace Walk' It is about a sweeping and evocative portrait of both family and a country struggling to move towards independence in society that has resisted change for centuries.
I have read the first chapter and i find it very emotional. The way he decribed a woman can fill in the whole chapter about her tragic life when she was forced to get married at the age of 14.
Well, my faciliator has arrived at the class and i am going to update more about the book and also myself. it is just that i am too tired yesterday. =]
Thanks for reading
