From the creative genius of Jostein Gaarder comes a beautiful novel about loneliness and the power of words. Jakop is a lonely man. Divorced from his wife, with no friends apart from his constant companion Pelle, he spends his life attending the funerals of people he doesn't know, obscuring his identity in a web of improbable lies. As his addiction to storytelling spirals out of control, he is forced to reconcile his love of language and stories with the ever more urgent need for human connection.
I highly recommend this book! I couldn't put it down. A very enjoyable read.
I love the characters in this book, I felt like I was invested in their lives.
I missed them very much and quickly ordered the next book when I'd finished it.
This is a really easy to learn and fun game suitable for all ages. I love playing it with my 10 year old as it is quick yet not too fast paced. It feels like much more civilised game than many other contemporary games.
Beautiful book of Poems Uncle Wes Marne was a very remarkable man selflessly sharing his Aboriginal culture
Lots of info about consumption of clothing and new innovations to cut down on waste.
