Ne znam koje dete ne bi bilo oduševljeno Karlsonom: "lep, pametan, elegantno popunjen muškarac u najboljim godinama" (kako stalno govori o sebi), pa još ima i propeler na leđima i živi na krovu. A zapravo najnevaljalije, najhvalisavije i najbezobraznije dete na svetu i pravi drug za dobrog i poslušnog, ali pomalo usamljenog Batu. Evergrin jedan kroz jedan. (U ovom izdanju su dodatan bonus i ilustracije Maje Veselinović koje zadržavaju taman kolko treba šmeka iz njenih andergraund stripova a da su i dalje idealne za decu.)
PS Ima jedna odlika *svih* knjiga Astrid Lindgren koja osobito pada u oči kad se čita naglas: kad god deci nešto nije jasno, reaguju, traže objašnjenje, pitaju... njena sledeća rečenica je odgovor na to. Ovo je potvrđeno na uzorku od nekih sedam-osam knjiga koje su većinom čitane više nego jednom :D Ako to nije rođeni pisac za decu, onda stvarno ne znam ko je.
Ein weiteres schönes Buch von Astrid Lindgren. Karlsson vom Dach ist wieder da und sorgt bei Lillebror für Spaß und Abenteuer. Ich mag die frechen Geschichten von Karlsson vom Dach, meine Lieblingsfigur von Astrid Lindgren ist er allerdings nicht. Trotzdem sind es sehr schöne Episoden, die Freude machen und für Unterhaltung sorgen.
Heißa hopsa, alle zusammen! Auch im zweiten Teil der Karlsson-Saga bleibt der Titelheld seiner Linie treu. Um diese nämlich zu halten (will sagen, dass er ziemlich dick ist) verputzt er eine Unmenge von Zimtschnecken, in Schweden kurz auch @ genannt. Natürlich ist auch Lillebror mit seiner Familie wieder dabei. Diesmal hält sich diese aber etwas im Hintergrund. Eine Weile muss Lillebror nämlich alleine mit der neuen Haushälterin Fräulein Bock in der Wohnung bleiben. Fräulein Bock, Hausbock genannt, ist ebenfalls ein hervorragend gezeichneter Charakter, an dem nicht nur die Leser, sondern auch Karlsson ihre helle Freude haben (im Sinne von Streichemachen, versteht sich).
Ich finde den zweiten Teil sprachlich noch gelungener, als den ersten. Eigentümlichkeiten in Wortwahl und Ausdrucksweise sind zwar immer noch vorhanden, aber deutlich geringer als zuvor, und fallen kaum noch auf. Dafür sind Karlssons Standard-Phrasen in genau der richtigen Dosierung und Frequenz angebracht.
Zu Karlssons Charakter können wir nun hinzufügen, dass er außer dem besten Staubsaugersauger, Drachenkämpfer, Spieleausdenker, Nieser, Hausbockbändiger, Fuchsmaler, Spürhund, Fleischklößeholer, Apfelbrater, Gerätemacher, Tellerwerfer, und Kuddelmuddler, auch offenbar der größte Messie und außerdem der beste Worterfinder der Welt ist. Aber das ist eben Karlsson.
Жегата ви е накарала да се затворите вкъщи? Мъчи ви лятна скука? Спокойствие и само спокойствие! Карлсон от покрива все още е в разцвета на силите си и е готов отново да ви навести в новото луксозно издание на изд. „Пан”. Знаменитата трилогия на Астрид Линдгрен излиза за първи път на български с цветни илюстрации, но това е дреболия, обикновено нещо, за което дори не си струва да се говори. След като така и така празнуваме 75-тата годишнина на Пипи Дългото чорапче, напълно в реда на нещата е да отбележим и 65-тия рожден ден на този виден художник на петлета и коносьор на кюфтенца, кифлички и какао! Да, най-добре веднага да започваме тържеството, иначе току виж рожденикът взел, че се гневрирал едно хубаво. „Три повести за Карлсон” събира всички приключения на един красив, много умен и прилично дебел мъж в разцвета на силите си и доказва, че полетът на фантазията задължително минава над покривите на Стокхолм. Любимо четиво за всички големи и малки Дребосъчета! Прочетете ревюто на "Книжни Криле": https://knijnikrile.wordpress.com/202...
"Papperspåse... står det så i sagan, va?" sa Karlsson. "Står det att jägaren sprättade upp vargens mage och tömde ut Rödluvan i en papperspåse, står det det?"
Jag känner igen mig så otroligt i Lillebror, och återigen är det en bok med många äventyr och fniss. Men vem fan är Karlsson? Varför är Lillebrors föräldrar okej med denna lekkamrat? Okej om han vore en flygande pojke i sjuårsåldern men han är uppenbart en vuxen man, en farbror. Det är svårt att släppa, speciellt när jag läser den som vuxen.
This one was less off-putting than the first one, with Karlsson being somewhat more likable. The adventures and shenanigans are funnier and Karlsson is less creepy, but I still find the main character's family and everyday life problematic.
Þetta er alveg ótrúlega skrítin saga en börnin mín vildu samt hlusta á hana alla. Það var eiginlega bara ég sem var að gefast upp. Alls ekki besta frá Astrid Lindgren.
I had a lot of books by Astrid Lindgren when I was little. I read the same books to my daughter. My oldest grandson was 4 last time we went to Sweden and visited Juni backen. It's a wonderful place for kids where you can visit Villa Villerkulla, Pippi's crazy house. On "The Story Train" you fly over many worlds that Astrid created. She wrote so many amazing books about different characters. https://www.junibacken.se/
I look forward to visiting Sweden again so my youngest grandson gets to go to Junibacken.
2024:⭐⭐⭐⭐ 2025:⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Za każdym razem jak po raz kolejny słucham audiobooka nagranego przez Jungowską(a wydaje mi się, że słuchałam wszystkich), to bawię się coraz lepiej. Może to kwestia nostalgii związanej z tym, że poznałam je w dzieciństwie, ale nie zmienia to faktu, że Pani Edyta genialnie interpretuje każdą z czytanych ról. Polecam każdemu<3!
Interesting read, I didnt really like it. I thought Karlsson was too much of a selfish jerk, and I kept waiting for the story to talk about how he changed his ways, but it never happened. But, Smidge was lovely, I did like how in the end he started to think Karlsson was a bit of nutter.
Šī grāmata manī izraisa agras bērnības sajūtas. Karlsons ir ļoti interesants, dažbrīd kaitinošs, bet jautrs un smieklīgs. Un protams grāmata dabū papildus punktus par mana uzvārda lietošanu!
Be it tirritating, jiggery-poking, or even figurating, spending time with Karlson is always fun. This is, and has always been, my favourite Karlson book, and for good reason; I mean, it's got Karlson being hilariously literal-minded about television, it's got suspenseful (but not really) bun-swiping and rescue missions, it's got Hilda's Spicy Special (rich in salt, pepper and chili powder, may or may not contain rat poison, fire and brimstone), and, perhaps most of all, it's got one-liners which have informed my own speech patterns, general worldview, and sense of humour to an extent which I perhaps hadn't fully realised until this reread.
Here's a small sample of the quotes I'm referring to: Karlson, about his (alleged) granny: 'Did you think she'd be running around all night without a roof over her head?'... I mean, when it comes to any of Karlson's relatives, I'd be less surprised if they lived with a roof under their heads, but if you say so... 'Paper bag... is that what it says in the fairytale, eh? Does it say the hunter slit open the wolf's belly and emptied Red Riding Hood into a paper bag, eh?' Can't argue with such firm commitment to authenticity. 'It's a mere trifle. If all you've got to worry about in your life is a couple of nutshells down your shirt, you should be happy.' -- words to live by, each and every one. Even if I don't particularly appreciate using a gutter as a rubbish chute. It really is a mere trifle. The entire scene where Smidge first meets Miss 'Creepy' Crawley speaks for itself. 'If they're well trained', 'And my shoes squeak, too', etc. etc. And don't even get me started on all the stuff which goes on after that. 'But when I'm as big as you, I'm going to go on a slimming diet, that's for sure.' Now, I don't appreciate the casual fatphobia which I now realise is sort of going on here, but, I mean, when such a clever little remark is coming from Smidge (even before he's been locked in his room, mind you), I don't think it's too out of place. It's sort of him channelling his inner Karlson, which we love to see. 'Beware! Your boundlessly short days should be spent with more gravity!', and, of course, the corresponding 'Beware! Your shamelessly expensive buns should be filled with more cinnamon!' I must say, I quote the latter on a much more near-daily basis than one would think I'd have an occasion to. But a quote like that doesn't really require a special occasion. 'And an earthquake, too, don't forget that! Poor people up in Norrland, what terrible weather they're going to have! But they ought to be glad they're getting any weather at all. What if they found themselves left without any?' There are no words strong enough to describe how this thought cracked me up as a child, and how it still leaves me in stitches nowadays. It's something else for sure. 'Just think how annoyed that bloke will be that he didn't get to tell us what he for his part is of the opinion!' Now this one... this one makes me laugh until it hurts, to this very day, and beyond, no doubt. 'But it says "Portrait of my Rabbits"... so where are the rabbits? -- 'They're in the fox.' Well, that makes complete and perfect sense. Smidge's letter to his mum also speaks for itself, poor spelling and all. 'Rest in peace', indeed. Upon the revelation that the Neighbourhood Ghost is just plain Karlson: 'Accidents happen to the best of us, as we've just seen' -- this is another one I quote on a near-daily basis. At least it's more pertinent to everyday situations so I don't sound like a walking non-sequitur when I do. 'You can count me out, if this is how it's going to be! Think you can throw me out of the back door like that, then count me out, that's all! [...] The back door, ugh! I want to be thrown out of the front door like posh people' -- this and 'Does she boss you about like that all the time, poor boy? [...] I'm glad she bosses me about too, because it has to be fair, or you can count me out!', these really speak to my somewhat unusual sense of justice, and by any means, 'you can count me out' has proven a rather useful phrase in my everyday life as well. 'Because I've got to get my hair done and have a bath and a facial and a manicure, and then try out some new arch supports.', and then the entire bit about how while arch supports might not show up on TV, the confidence they give one does show. It's not all about how you look, it's also about how you feel, and that's a message I hadn't quite expected from a book like this or a character like Miss Crawley, and yet here we are.
That being said, I can't quite tell why Miss Crawley was so keen on one-upping her sister Frida at being the mad ghost-sighting lady on the telly, of all things, but one must admire her dedication to it until the very end, despite discovering she's, in fact, more scared of ghosts than she might have admitted at first. Determination and persistence are nice traits to have, especially if what you're aiming for is worth achieving. They really don't write them like this anymore, do they? Well, then it's a good job we've still got this one. 10/5* for this core memory of a book.
прекраснейшая книга! прекрасная! карлсон – это бойцовский клуб, только для детей. развлечение [альтер-эго, ти как хочешь енто назови (с) вахтанг безобидзе], о котором никому другому говорить и знать нельзя. а еще я всяких интересных фактищ оттуда понатаскала, вот и к вам делиться пришла: • в роду у карлсона были гномы, • двух ближайших школьных друзей малыша звали кристер и гунилла. конечно, с такими и до воображаемых недалеко! • малыш увлекался ничем, кроме как собиранием марок, а еда в его доме была максимально скучная: тефтельки и торт со сливками подавали исключительно по праздникам, теперь вообще не странно, что карлсон для него – лучше новогогода с николайчиками, • в карлсоне витает дух эротизъма, сами смотрите, ну: – ты засосал красную шапочку, этого я тебе никогда не прощу! – закричал малыш. – никогда прежде малыша не обрабатывали пылесосом, и это оказалось так щекотно, что он стонал от смеха! • антивражино-лайфхак: выходит, достаточно просидеть с человеком взаперти два часа, и ты готов с ним примириться, • дефиниция вдохновения: ла-ла-ла! – поет что-то во мне, и я знаю, что это вдохновение, • и даже о ковидьке предсказания: оказывается, быть изолированным весело, если изолирован вместе с тобой, – сказал малыш, • о ковидьке и собаках: [малыш своему псо] ты радуешься, что меня изолировали, что я не хожу в школу, а сижу дома? ты, бимбо, наверно, думаешь, что я самый лучший в мире… • и о френдмейкинге: друзьям надо говорить приятные и ободряющие вещи примерно каждые пять минут! (с) карлсон что-то он о жизни-таки, пропеллерогудящий, знал. как здорово, что я его в детстве не читала: сейчас читаю впервые – и iменно нравится! кто знает, чем бы это все чтиводельное занятие закончилось лет в 7.
Less heart than the original. At least the jiggery poking in the first book helped a neglected baby and taught the bad guys a lesson, so his shenanigans had a redeeming quality. This story just seemed mean. I remember liking the first book and not being bothered by K's poutiness and egotism, but adult me isn't amused.
Damals ein von meinen Lieblingsbücher, Karlsson fasziniert mich. Ich hatte es schon für meinen Sohn gelesen daher meine Glücklichkeit war noch grösser - gibt es ein anderes Karlsson Buch?!? Yippie! War genauso süss und lustig, ausserdem muss ich mehr auf Deutsch lesen. Solche Bücher, immer gerne!
This second part about the adventures of the unforgettable Karlsson is simply magnificent, it is as good as the original part. Children and adults, who have not even read the first part of this magnificent series, rejoice, truly amazing joy awaits you ahead.
Better than the first book IMO - Karlsson is still a bit of a selfish jerk, but the writing and the story are as funny as anything by Astrid Lindgren, which is saying a lot. Some really hilarious set pieces, including a laugh-out-loud funny letter that poor Lillebror sends to his mother.
Karlson Flies Again is a fairy tale for people of all ages!!! So is the Wealth Management Time fairy tale by Viktor O. Ledenyov and Dimitri O. Ledenyov!!!
