book review


IN THE SKIN OF LION


Well well well, As every one knows i didn`t like the book because first of all i don`t like love stories, second this book was the boringest and slowest book i`ve ever read in my life.In addition, it is very complected and some ideas weren`t clear.However, let`s See what u think bout it.

this book is in period of 1930th.Patrik,who is the first and mail character in this book is a Canadian and spend more of his life with immigrants.He at the age of 22 felt in love with an actress"Clara" ,who was a millioner lovers"Mr Small".Then Clara ran away with Mr.Small and Patrik lost his love.Then he started to work in a tunnel and during this time he met one of Clara friend,who was an actress as well, and her name was Alice.However,after while she died because of an explosion.and he started another life without his real life.

This book also mostly explain the immigrant life in Canada in those period.They work in the cheapest and lowest jobs and earned the lowest salary.most of them died in the different project such as bridge building and tunnel.and governments and presidents of those project companies even didn't pay attention to them.And all this true stories about immigrant make me to think and in some how sad.

But i wont tel u more about it because i want to explain it to u on Friday presentation.han?

Living in a foreign country is so hard. I can't imagine how terrible it was in the old day, but those people who was at that time must have suffered alots. Pity for them. Oh My book "Monday Mourning", I will tell you more on Friday.
