Rich Man, Poor Man (1971)

Если провести аналогию между писателями и стрелками, то Ирвина Шоу несомненно можно назвать снайпером-чемпионом. В первый раз я прочитала этот роман когда мне было совсем не много лет. И на тот момент я конечно же не могла всецело обьять весь тот пульсирующий поток времени и меняющиеся вместе с н...

Beggarman, Thief (2002)

Ако приемем, че първата книга "Богат, беден" е върхът на айсберга, то тогава продължението й е разкритият, цялостен образ на чудовището, което се крие под повърхността. Обясненията за всичките ни въпроси от първата книга, се намират тук.В историята за двете момчета, продълженията на рода Джордах,...

The Young Lions (2000)

”This time it is not a simple, understandable war, within the same culture. This time it is an assault of the animal world upon the house of the human being. I don’t know what you saw in Africa and Italy, but I know what I saw in Russia and Poland. We made a cemetery a thousand miles long and a t...

This book is an ambitious attempt to chronicle the social entropy that can pull even loving people away from each other.

Short Stories: Five Decades (2000)

My agent and I were discussing short fiction and he mentioned that he felt Irwin Shaw was one of the very best writers. On the strength of this I hunted through the various collections of Shaw's writings and discovered this volume on the internet. It was something like $10. maybe a little more. T...

Lucy Crown (2015)

Първите 30 страници започнаха много необещаващо за мен и прибързано реших, че книгата няма да ми хареса. Каква беше изненадата ми като затворих последната страница и трябваше да призная 2 неща:- Господин Ъруин знае да пише.и - Никога не трябва да съдя за една книга преди да съм прочела поне полов...

The Top of the Hill (1979)

I've begun to realize that Shaw's later novels lack the details and quality of his earlier ones. The Top of The Hill just seems all around lazy. Nothing profound ever occurs. Shaw provides his readers with a simple story with a few key characters whose bourgeois lives are interrupted. All the cha...
