Es gibt eben zweierlei Mitleid. Das eine, das schwachmütige und sentimentale, das eigentlich nur Ungeduld des Herzens ist...

Slow going but worth sticking with
Revisado: 11-19-24
Excellent performance, and brilliantly detailed observations of human behavior.
(That was not enough words for Audible to accept my review, so I added this parenthesis. That makes it acceptable to them. I guess that’s artificial intelligence.)

Historia
Ulysses S. Grant's life has typically been misunderstood. All too often he is caricatured as a chronic loser and an inept businessman or as the triumphant but brutal Union general of the Civil War. But these stereotypes don't come close to capturing him, as Chernow reveals in his masterful biography, the first to provide a complete understanding of the general and president whose fortunes rose and fell with dizzying speed and frequency.

Every American should read this book
Revisado: 06-06-23
I knew very little about Grant before I started reading this book. It’s a superb biography, and gave me an understanding of the remarkable combination of military genius with steely determination, humility, and a good heart that made this man a far greater figure in history than I had never suspected. And hindsight I cannot but wonder why he doesn’t figure more prominently in America’s understanding of itself.

Historia
It is the story of a boy growing up in the war-torn Jerusalem of the 40s and 50s in a small apartment crowded with books in 12 languages and relatives speaking nearly as many. His mother and father, both wonderful people, were ill-suited to each other. When Oz was 12 and a half years old, his mother committed suicide - a tragedy that was to change his life. He leaves the constraints of the family and the community of dreamers, scholars, and failed businessmen to join a kibbutz.

Heartbreaking
Revisado: 01-19-22
I don’t know any other book that portrays so many different aspects of a human life in such depth and with such controlled equanimity. The countless carefully observed and precisely elaborated details make this a fascinating historical and autobiographical account of the life of a boy growing up in Palestine and Israel from his birth in 1939 to the 1960s, of his parents, and of his many relatives and ancestors and their lives in Israel, Russia, Poland, and elsewhere. But what makes this book truly distinctive is the author's extraordinary ability to put all of that massive amount of information into the service of giving expression to a passion for life in spite of death that all human beings can understand.

Historia
"Abandon all hope you who enter here." ( "Lasciate ogne speranza voi ch’intrate.") Dante’s Hell is one of the most remarkable visions in Western literature. An allegory for his and future ages, it is, at the same time, an account of terrifying realism. Passing under a lintel emblazoned with these frightening words, the poet is led down into the depths by Virgil and shown those doomed to suffer eternal torment for vices exhibited and sins committed on earth.

Historia
Someone has tried to kill the French president. How many snipers can shoot from three-quarters of a mile with total confidence? John Kott—a U.S. Army marksman gone bad—is one of them. After fifteen years in prison, he’s out . . . and there’s a G8 summit coming up, packed with enough world leaders to tempt any assassin.

A new high

I have read all of the previous Reacher novels, and as far as I am concerned this one is as good or better than any of them.
