Recenzie Tabloul pierdut de Jonathan Harr


In 1992, o tanara studenta la Arte gaseste intr-o arhiva italiana obscura un indiciu care duce la descoperirea tabloului Prinderea lui Isus, o panza despre care se presupunea ca este pierduta de 200 de ani. Indiciul conduce spre un asezamant bisericesc din Irlanda, in centrul romanului fiind actiunea de restaurare a acestei capodopere a barocului italian. Cartea se poate citi in mai multe registre, ca un roman istoric sau ca un roman de arta, dar actiunea plina de suspans ne duce cu gandul la un thriller.



My opinion:



Si se pare ca mi-am descoperit o noua pasiune. Întotdeauna mi-a plăcut istoria, insa doar in cantităţi mici si nu disecata cum este in scoli. Urăsc istoria politica si nu cred ca o să-mi placa vreodată. Îmi place istoria unei persoane cunoscute, unui tablou, unei tari. Îmi plac la fel de mult miturile si ascunzişurile pe care istoria ne-o da. Iar citind acesta carte, mi-a amintit de ce ador atât de mult istoria măruntă, ca să-i zic aşa.

Am văzut acesta cartea săptămâna trecuta pe un raft la biblioteca oraşului, si nu m-am putut abţine sa nu o iau. Coperta e pur si simplu mirifica, iar daca nu citeşti cu atenţie titlul vei spune ca e o carte de religie. Ador coperţile celor de la Rao. Mereu coperta originala de sub supracoperta e aceeaşi cu cea de pe supracoperta. Absolut fantastica.

Nu am auzit mai nimic despre acesta carte. Nu am văzut pe nimeni sa vorbească despre acesta carte. Si sunt sigura ca multi dintre voi nu aţi citit acesta carte. Insa ma bucur ca am descoperit-o, si mai ales din întâmplare. A făcut citirea ei mult mai interesată si mai plăcută, ca si cum as fi descoperit ceva valoros si e de datoria mea sa împărtăşesc cu restul lumii descoperirea mea.

Nu pot sa spun ca sunt o fana înrăită a tablourilor. Îmi place tot ce este frumos si reprezintă frumos. Sunt fascinate de frumos, ca majoritatea omenirii. Daca pana acum nu am adorat istoria artei, ei, se pare ca acesta carte mi-a insuflat acesta pasiune. Este o adevărat placere sa înveţi si in acelaşi timp sa te bucuri de carte. Rar găseşti astfel de cărţi: care nu sunt plictisitoare, captivează atenţia, nu se bazează doar pe romantism si viaţa personala a unei persoane, ci pur si simplu pe istorie, si mai ales istoria artei.

Ceea este si mai fascinant si da un surplus de savoare cărţii, este locul unde acţiunea si şirul evenimentelor i-a parte. Sau mai bine zis locurile. Roma si Irlanda. Doua tari pline de istorie, doua tari care exprima atât de multa istorie prin clădirile, locurile, aşezământele prin care treci. Sunt doua tari care explodează de istorie si cultura. Mereu am adorat astfel de tari. Sunt cele mai importante pentru omenirea noastră. Pentru ca nu ne lăsa sa uitam trecutul, ceea ce câteodată e bine dar câteodată nu. In cazul de fata, trecut a fost necesar si care bine folositor. Fara el, n-ar fi existat astfel de cărţi.

Mi-a plăcut enorm de mult acesta carte, chiar daca la unele capitole mi-am plictisit putin. Bănuiesc ca vroiam ceva mai palpitant in acele capitole, insa îmi dau seama ca fara aceea plictiseala, nu îmi plăcea atât de mult marea de informaţie pe care am primit-o după. Primeşti informaţii atât despre personalitatea si viaţa lui Caravaggio, cat si despre istoria tablourilor sale si ce s-a ales de ele. Este un roman perfect care îmbina atât istoria cat si arta. E genul de istorie si arta potrivita pentru cultura ta generala. Aşa ca prinzi doi iepuri dintr-o lovitura: afli si despre istorie, dar si despre arta îmbogăţindu-ţi cultura generale.

Este un roman perfect care nu îşi are locul pentru dragoste si romanţe, si nici măcar nu îţi vei dorii asta. Fiecare personaj are parte de un final pe care aceştia şi-l doresc si care este potrivit pentru personalităţile lor. Recomand din suflet aceasta carte. Este plina de informaţie, scurta ca număr de pagini insa bogata in informaţie.

Carte are 220 pagini, coperta hardcover cu supracoperta si o găsiţi pe site-ul editurii Rao.

Favorite quotes:

“Un tablou e ca o fereastra spre trecut.”

“Si nici o copie, oricât de bun, nu poate dezvălui acele străfunduri.”

Synopsis

There’s a new beautiful player in town…

Blake Burns, the sexy head of SIN-TV, who goes through women like some go through water. Until he meets Jennifer McCoy, his outspoken new assistant and development executive.

Newly engaged Jennifer has no idea that her devastating new boss is the man she kissed, blindfolded, in a game of Truth or Dare. That kiss, that man, that beautiful stranger she cannot forget.

Blake hasn’t been able to stop thinking about that kiss either…and he’ll do anything to win Jennifer —even if it means being a beautiful bastard and breaking all the rules.

Excerpt

“Kiss him, kiss him!” I heard my friends chanting in the distance. Oh, God. What was I going to do? I couldn’t let them down or I’d never live it down. I’d come this far. Without overthinking, I blindly ran my hands over my victim’s face. His skin was soft with a fine layer of silky stubble, and his features were distinct and defined—a straight manly nose, a strong, slightly clefted chin, and above it, a set of lush, velvety lips. I lingered on his lips, tracing them with my fingertips, building up the courage to touch down on them with my own.  “I hope you don’t mind, but I’m playing a game of Truth or Dare, and I have to kiss you.” God, how ridiculous I must sound and look with my blindfold. I took my victim’s silence as a sign he was willing to play along. Okay, here goes. Clutching his angular jaw between my hands, I bent down to kiss him. But before I could latch my lips onto his, he rose and, in one swift move, crashed his lips onto mine. Oh. My. God. A heat wave shot through me. It was one of those kisses like in a movie. Fierce, delicious, passionate. Opened mouth and oh so consuming. And he tasted divine—the sweet taste of champagne lacing his breath. He bit my upper lip, forcing me to part my lips, and plunged his warm, velvety tongue inside my mouth. His tongue instantly found mine and they entwined, dancing like they’d been together forever. He tugged hard on my ponytail, yanking back my head, and coiled it around his hand, tearing at my roots. The delicious pain mixed with the delicious pleasure of his kiss, sending a rush of erotic sensations through me. Every nerve ending was a sparking little fuse. My breathing grew shallow. Already lightheaded, I was now borderline delirious. I’d never been kissed by a man like this before. I didn’t want him to stop. What was wrong with me? I’d just gotten engaged. In the background, I could vaguely hear my friends cheering and whistling. “Go, girl!” For sure, head cheerleader Chaz. My inner voice told me to stop, but no matter how much I willed it, I couldn’t get my lips to part from his. In fact, I deepened the kiss, pulling him closer to me by the collar of his shirt. The material felt expensive, like the gazillion thread Egyptian cotton kind. Everything about this man tasted and felt divine. He squeezed my ponytail tighter. I moaned into his mouth and he moaned back. God, the throaty sound of him was sexy! And then suddenly, as fast as he had plunged his tongue into my mouth, he withdrew it. In tandem, he let go of my hair. I gasped, desperate for more. “Wait!” I cried out, my hands grappling for him. Instead of finding him, I found myself knocking over a chilled glass. My heightened sense of smell told me it was his champagne. “I’m sorry,” I croaked, struggling to tear off the tight, blinding tie. “I’ll buy you another glass.” Finally, I undid the tie. I blinked once. He was gone, and I was painfully all alone. Where did he go? My eyes frantically searched the pulsating crowd, darting left and right, but he was nowhere to be found. Even if he was facing me somewhere, staring into my eyes, I wouldn’t know it because I didn’t know what he looked like. My friends were now all standing and applauding me. I’d lived up to the dare. Kissed a strange man on the lips, Oh those lips!  Dazed, I staggered back to the group and dared not tell them how much I’d enjoyed it. And wanted more.
