this book I have in the Challenge 'I'm in ... English ' read.
The first sentence: "It has been sixty-four years since the president and the Consortium identified love as a disease, and forty-three since the scientists perfected a cure."
Content:
are love, the feeling with the joys and sorrows as close to each other, like no, is the greatest threat in society lives in Lena. Amor Deliria nervosa people brought before the procedure to the mind, led to war and all sorts of other diseases. But Lena's world can you protect yourself against this risk by undergoing an operation on the brain. Lena, 95 days and also is safe. Squire 18 years she has been waiting for this day and longed for him. Years in which she was haunted by the fear of the disease at some point to become the victims and to become, as she never wanted to be: like her mother.
opinion:
Quite simply I do not find it, take my thoughts with Lauren Oliver's new book into words. The story focuses, in particular at the beginning, very much on Lena and her inner life. She is the one in her family who is always obedient and everything tries to be barely noticeable. Lena holds dear in the background, like the time that it remains up to the treatment, get it over with quickly. Only 95 days and they can gossip about her person and the doubts that you are met with, finally crushed. Most people know in their environment that Lena's mother had to be treated three times, and finally even chose death rather than give up the love for Lena's father. Lena own lives because of this disgrace in the ongoing effort to do everything possible to act normal. She rarely speaks with boys, helping her aunt when she can and is usually very reserved. It is optional to the average person, or the in-between girl, as she calls it often.
But one of the most important days of her life dancing Lena for the first time in the series. Your otherwise thoughtful acts are not even on their minds, but their sense of determined. Panic about this new endeavor to train, Lena is only more to bring the time to treatment behind. But then Alex enters her life, long awaited and quite unexpected so close to Jean's goal: a life of security, but without love. Alex is already cured, therefore represents no threat to Lena, become infected with it to. However, it will take for them to ever be dangerous to him. What else is limited to Alex's attitude towards the treatment, but rather because they will always safer to suffer from Amor Deliria nervosa. But it really is as fatal a man to love? Is it really the worst thing that can happen to a man? In less than 95 days, Lena learns that love is quite different from what they always believed. Suddenly, she no longer feels average, it would not be any. She knows the feelings have changed for Alex, but not in the way they had expected.
How can it be that an entire society promotes a callous life to live under complete control? All sink in the cold and lack of interest. The question is, why is no one on how wrong this is?
Lauren Oliver's world, which they modeled on our own, created for delirium has unfolded slowly. While reading, I often had a feeling of discomfort when Lena more about the Portland where she lives told. It seems this world is not a priori bad. criminality, divorce or war, it hardly. Everything is settled and peaceful. At least at first glance. Because the more the story progresses, is the clearer it was purchased at what price such peacefulness. People are numb already apathetic. It is a society in which parents to comfort their children may not hug, or prefer not even to the treatment considered. But the life of the people are not only drawn by monotony, but by something else: fear. Fear of all who stand by their feelings and refuse to be cured of the disease love.
Lena often mentions how much they want to hug her friend Hana, would tell her that she likes them. In the same breath she admits, but also that we can not. It is painful to witness
what Lena has to refrain from what occurs naturally as a reader. It's also scary how realistic happened to sound this world sometimes. I could even imagine that people would be able to something, to restore order. Arbitrary power, constant control and stir up fear, were ways to keep the population in Lena's world at bay, but unfortunately we are not unknown.
What I liked particularly well to delirium was the beautiful language. No question, Lauren Oliver is a very talented writer. There were several sentences in this book that I have read several times because they just so beautiful, almost poetic already were. Also great praise for the authentic acting excerpts from the book Shhh who have everything backed up well.
But I especially want to single out Lauren Oliver's talent to write last paragraphs. I have already noted on it Before I fall, but the last paragraph of delirium is simply written just incredibly good!
As you can see, there is unlikely to say much about the book, which is positive. I can also Enthusiasm of many other bloggers understand. Delirium has a very interesting approach. A world that has often brought me a sense of unease, because it is our similar in some way. The characters have depth to a large extent. Alex I was sympathetic from the beginning, because he is a cheerful nature. Lena goes through such a great development that I will love them in the second part probably.
Why I'm not completely thrilled and not forgive the highest score?
There are several reasons. On the one hand, there has used the book for me too long to build up tension. Especially in the early ripples of action to himself, directed the focus to Lena, the weightier unfortunately before each Action seems to be afraid. She is so uncertain and striving to do everything right (which is thwarting all) that I am on the first 200 pages or more could make friends with her during the story. Characters such as Hana, could have given it more space, because I find them quite interesting and would have appreciated a little more because, just as Lena is more out of themselves. I also hope that will come more to the world and the back story of what had to be rolled up but not particularly compelling in the first volume.
Despite the things that have disturbed me, delirium is a good book worth reading. After the end of the book I can not help but eagerly to await the second volume. This will appear next year under the title "Pandemonium". I promise from him that he is a lot faster than delirium, because then it would fit more to Lena. If the story structure that is consistent and designed to be exciting, a full score is nothing to prevent. In the case of delirium, there is of me, but for the first 200 pages could hardly tie me and a few small shortcomings, deduction of points.
