The Song of Names Free download ☆ 5 T knot geniuses to their admirers In doing so he also evokes the fragile bubble of Jewish life in prewar London; the fearful carnival of the Blitz and the gray new world that emerged from its ashes Bristling with ideas lambent with feeling The Song of Names is a masterful work of the imaginati. I was stoked to read this book the review I read of it made it sound amazing However I was disappointed I didn t even read it all the way through I stopped and scanned Sometimes I judge a book by how long it takes me to get through it if I cannot put it down or if I am savoring every chapter turning the pages slowly or if I am starting it over again to make it last are all indicators that it is a great book None of this happened with this one In fact it was the opposite criteria that I experienced defining it as a bad book falling asleep repeatedly whenever I read it skimming through the end reading the last chapter liking the author s voice a lot in the beginning then thinking it s pompous and arrogant by the end This book didn t have a satisfying ending for me Not a lot happens A man inherits his father s music company he goes searching for prospective talent and winds up being talked into judging a small town s music competition One of the boys who performs has a distinctive style that reminds the protagonist of his family s adopted son from Poland who escaped the concentration camps because of his talent but his own family did not David then disappeared the night of his much hyped debut The man decides to track down his missing brother I think I was mislead by the review that it would be about London during the Blitz and although that was part of the setting it wasn t focused upon as much as I wished it wasSome scattering of sexual adult content and the subject of WWII and the Holocaust is heavy Minimal languageFavorite uoteAnd he lived within me like a futuristic artificial lung filling me with confidence and contentment when natural organs failed That s how I thought of him as part of me And that s how I loved him not as a brother in all but blood but heedlessly and functionally as you love your little finger or the curve of a cheekbone upon your palm as you drift happily off to sleep The Hunt for the Golden Mole you love The Team your little finger or the curve of a cheekbone upon My Father's Daughter your palm as Secret Diary of a Grumpy Old Woman you drift happily off to sleep
