If you could sum up Infidel in three words, what would they be?
READ THIS BOOK!
What did you like best about this story?
The true story of one woman's amazing journey from virtual slavery as an Islamic female to a life of service to all who are oppressed by Islam.
Which character – as performed by Ayaan Hirsi Ali – was your favorite?
Ayaan Hirsi Ali is a strong and likable character who overcomes mountains of obstacles to find love and success in the Western world.
Did you have an extreme reaction to this book? Did it make you laugh or cry?
Ayaan Hirsi Ali, as any internet search can tell you, has been demonized and vilified and she lives under constant protection from the very real death threats against her. Yet if you take the time to listen to her voice, you will always hear polite, reasonable and compassionate debate on an issue of world wide importance. Don't expect rantings, posturing, or name calling. Listen to this woman who has paid such a high price to bring the continued murder, terror, and enslavement she has witnessed first hand to the international conversation.

Spoon River has 244 accounts of the lives of people in the town that explain its goings on over a couple of centuries. Each free form verse is presented as an epitaph of one of the citizens delivered themselves, often criticizing the words said about them on their tombstone or the monument or stone left above them. The stories build on one another as well as reference various family members and others mentioned in other stories.

unprofessional/amature production
Revisado: 09-11-12
What disappointed you about Spoon River Anthology?
The reader stumbled on words and mispronounced them. His performance was dull, without emotion, and halting.
What was one of the most memorable moments of Spoon River Anthology?
When I realized the performance would detract from the content of the book.
How could the performance have been better?
Maybe he should have looked up words he didn't know instead of making up his own way of saying them. For example: "upanishads" and "bhagavad gita".
What character would you cut from Spoon River Anthology?
The content was brilliant, but the performance was lack luster.
Any additional comments?
The price of under $2 was what drew me in.
