Paperback. 13,00 / 21,00 cm. in Turkish. 888 p. Translated by Cihan Yazgi, Kübra Yazgi 1.Kitap - Kara Adami 2.Kitap - Dünya Tersine Dönsün Baska hiçbir yazar bu muazzam hikâyeyi anlatmakta, Michelangelo, Van Gogh ve Freud üzerine çalismis ve yazilar yazmis Irving Stone'dan daha yeterli olamazdi. Köken, sadece Beagle gezisinin anlatisi degil, ayni zamanda çogunlukla Darwin'in sagligina agir darbeler vurmus, bir ömür süren entelektüel sorgulamalarinin; eski dostlari birbirine düsüren akademik ve dini tartismalarin ve onun sevgili esi Emma ve yedi çocugu ile olan aile saadetinin de anlatisidir. Stone'un benzersiz tarzi, Horn Burnu kasirgasinin yarattigi kaostan, Ingiltere'nin en önemli bir grup kasifinin çalkantili da olsa sevgi dolu dostluklarina ve Darwin'in Kent sehrinde bulunan evi Down House'taki kum yolun huzuruna kadar her seyin hayat buldugu bu genis kapsamli kariyerinin tamamini kapsamaktadir. Biyografik romanin ustasi olarak kabul edilen Irving Stone'un hiçbir takdime ihtiyaci yoktur. Van Gogh hakkindaki Lust for Life'ndan (Yasama Tutkusu), Michelangelo hakkindaki The Agony and the Ecstasy (Iztirap ve Cosku), Sophia ve Henry Schliemann'in Truva'yi ararken yasadiklari romantizmi anlatan The Greek Treasure'a (Yunan Hazinesi), en çok satanlar olarak kabul görmüs ve adini herkesçe bilinir kilmistir. Cümle Yayinlari olarak Türkçede Irving Stone kitaplarina bir yenisini daha eklemenin hakli kivancini yasiyoruz.

About the author

In 1923, Stone received his bachelor's degree from the University of California, Berkeley. In the 1960s, Stone received an honorary Doctorate of Letters from the University of Southern California, where he had previously earned a Masters Degree from the College of Letters, Arts, and Sciences.

When at home, Stone relied upon the research facilities and expertise made available to him by Esther Euler, head research librarian of the University of California at Los Angeles, to whom he dedicated and thanked, in addition to many others, in several of his works.

Stone enjoyed a long marriage to his wife and editor on many of his works, Jean Stone. The Stones lived primarily in Los Angeles, California. During their lifetime, Stone and his wife funded a foundation to support charitable causes they believed in.

Stone's main source for Lust for Life, as noted in the afterword, were Van Gogh's letters to his brother Theo. It seems probable that Vincent's letters to and from his own brother Theo provided a foundation for Adversary in the House. Stone additionally did much of his research "in the field". For example, he spent many years living in Italy while working on The Agony and the Ecstasy. The Italian government lauded Stone with several honorary awards during this period for his cultural achievements highlighting Italian history.

[Diyojen Elliyedi · Rating 3 out of 5]

Kitap sürükleyici ve ilginçti sadece çevirisi çok kötüydü.Ayrıca üç satırlık cümlelere hiçbir noktalama işareti koymadan katar gibi dizilmişti.O nedenle de okuması zordu.
