BR:14 Go, lovely rose and other stories

" 'I warned you about that girl,' said Gerda." (p.49)
     Today I read "Go, lovely rose and other stories", a book in the Oxford Bookworms Library series.
It was written by H.E.Bates.
     I rose in the garden on a warm summer night, a father waits for his daughter to come home. He watches,and waits, and worried. Under a stormy, daffodil-yellowsky, a man returns to his home town after many years aways. He walks slowly along a street, remembering the girl he loved, and lost... Among high mountains, in a place where water from a lake thunders over a dam, three people meet - a mother, a danghter and the man who comes between them. These three stories show us how love grows and changes, like a flower opening and bying like a storm driving clouds across the sky. They show us how love goes hand in han d with fear and hate and jealousy, and how a moment of madness can change people's lives for ever...
     This is a short editing. The Motifs are Symbolic flowers and fruits in each work. The dam is impressive. It is drawing a jealousy about male-female relationship. Because they are short stories, they are easy to read, they are narratives that dealt with human minds, so you can read more quickly thanks ahead.
     If you are interested, Please read it. I recommend it.

BR:13 The Piano

"So, perhaps we can say that he does not find music, but that music finds him." (p.1)
      Today I read "The Piano", a book in the Oxford Bookworms Library. It was written by Rosemany Border.
     One day, a farmer tells a farm boy to take everything out of an old building and throw it away.
'It's all rubbish,' he says.    In the middle of all the rubbish, the boy finds a beautiful old piano.
He has never played before, but now, when his fingers touch the piano, he begins to play.
He closes his eyes and the music comes to him - and the music moves his fingers. When he opens his eyes again, he knows that his life is changed for ever...
     This is success story till the poor boy becomes a pianist. It was short but simple English was easy to read, it was a nice story full of chest.
If you are interested, Please read it. I recommend it.

BR:12 Ear-rings From Frankfurt

'Wendy opened her present, and laughed for the first time that day.' (p.39)

Today I read "Ear-rings From Frankfurt", a book in the Oxford Bookworms Library series. It was written by Red Wright.

Richard Walton is in trouble again. He has lost his job, and he has borrow money from his sister, Jennifer - again. And now he has disappeared. Jennifer is looking for him, and so are the police. They both have some questions that they want to ask him. How did he lose his job? Why did he fly to Frankfurt? Who gave his girlfriend those very expensive gold ear-rings. Only Richard can answer these questions. But nobody can find Richard.

I was able to read this book at once because it was so exsiting. I think it is security suspense story. But I did not understand the last of the story well. The start of the story was interesting in mystery.

If you are interested, please read it.  I recommend it.
