HODNOTENIE: ***"Ešte v škole som čítala knihu, v ktorej sa uvádzalo, že každý by mal mať vlastnú izbu, - vraví. -Prečo?--Aby v nej mohol rozmýšľať.--Ja viem rozmýšľať aj pri tebe.- Čakám. -Prečo nemôžeš rozmýšľať v izbe, v ktorej som aj ja?-Mama zvraští tvár. -Zväčša môžem, ale bol by príjemný pocit občas sa uchýliť niekam, kde som iba ja.--Ja si to nemyslím.- " (s.289).

Dnes pro vás mám tak trochu archivní recenzi, která je zároveň tak trochu „jiná“. Původně jsem ji totiž psala na jaře jako součást seminární práce do školy a je zaměřená na překlad o něco více, než jste u mě zvyklí. Teď jsem si na ni vzpomněla a řekla jsem si, že by byla škoda se s vámi o ni nepodělit; kniha, o které je řeč, je totiž poměrně zajímavá.

To five-year-old-Jack, Room is the world....
Told in the inventive, funny, and poignant voice of Jack, Room is a celebration of resilience—and a powerful story of a mother and son whose love lets them survive the impossible.
To five-year-old Jack, Room is the entire world. It is where he was born and grew up; it's where he lives with his Ma as they learn and read and eat and sleep and play. At night, his Ma shuts him safely in the wardrobe, where he is meant to be asleep when Old Nick visits.
Room is home to Jack, but to Ma, it is the prison where Old Nick has held her captive for seven years. Through determination, ingenuity, and fierce motherly love, Ma has created a life for Jack. But she knows it's not enough ... not for her or for him. She devises a bold escape plan, one that relies on her young son's bravery and a lot of luck. What she does not realize is just how unprepared she is for the plan to actually work.
Told entirely in the language of the energetic, pragmatic five-year-old Jack, Room is a celebration of resilience and the limitless bond between parent and child, a brilliantly executed novel about what it means to journey from one world to another.
