Tribe of Mentors Uh, Tim Ferriss… to be honest, I’m not entirely sure what to think of him. I really don’t know. He’s one of those authors where I get the feeling that his blog and podcast are more interesting—and have more credibility—than his books. I’ve owned his bestseller The 4-Hour Workweek for ages, as…
The Briefcase When you finish reading The Briefcase by Hiromi Kawakami, you’ll be left with mixed feelings. And not in the sense of whether the book is well written or not—stylistically, it absolutely is. The confusion is more emotional: you won’t be sure whether you’re supposed to feel happy, sad, nostalgic, lonely, or something entirely…
Bears on the Road July, Year of Corona 2020. Text sent to eminent yellow press as a task during application for the eminent job of yellow journalist of yellow press. Task objective: Write a pile of fabrications and trash some Serbian businessman, preferably a successful one. Conditions: Important that it sounds shocking, that it mentions…
Originals Hmm… I have no idea how to review this book, which delighted and encouraged me in so many ways and is quite certainly (for me) one of the most pleasant surprises of 2020 (“Come on, and coronavirus wasn’t a surprise for you, you idio… ah, you wrote most pleasant, I just noticed, my bad…”…
Perfect Surprise As you may have noticed from the book reviews, I don’t easily pick up domestic writers of the “newer generation” (in terms of publication period, not their ages :D) and few of them have left any “wow” impression on me so far. There are exceptions, of course, like the first book reviewed on…
The Ideal Team Player Looking at the topic covered by the book “The Ideal Team Player,” as well as the fact that it’s quite connected to my job, for a change we’ll have a somewhat more serious and professional review, but I hope not a boring one, although my subconscious won’t participate much today, and…
The Wolf of Wall Street Ugh, where to start… you might not believe me, but I still haven’t watched the film “The Wolf of Wall Street”! The reason is this book. I wanted to read it first. I’ve had it for years, but I kept putting off reading it, even though everyone praises the book…
Slavic Mythology A large number of people love mythology. Here, me first! 🙂 Starting from Greek, through Egyptian, Norse, to Indian, Japanese and Chinese mythology. Most often they’re in the form of fantasy tales about the relationships of heroes and gods, great wars, encounters with mythological beings, stories about the creation of the world and…
The Boy in the Striped Pyjamas – A story that breaks your heart without a single drop of blood It’s never easy when you pick up books about World War II, especially those that touch on the Holocaust. Somehow you’re not quite convinced that there will be (at least some semblance of) a happy ending…
Altered Carbon (Season 2) Okay… although my reviews are just my personal experiences and I don’t pay much attention to other people’s ratings, I have to admit I was surprised by some people’s initial (negative) impressions of the second season of “Altered Carbon,” so I somehow wanted to separate these two seasons, especially since the…
