Description

La vita di Alice egrave; apparentemente perfetta: 28 anni; un lavoro a tempo indeterminato e un fidanzato che ama; ricambiata. Non le resta che cercare casa e fare dei figli; guadagnandosi il paradiso terrestre di una vita normale. Eppure di perfetto non crsquo;egrave; nulla. Il surreale sarcasmo di Alice fa scoprire al lettore situazioni che suo malgrado conosce fin troppo bene; nascoste dietro la maschera della normalitagrave; di unrsquo;ordinaria giornata in ufficio. Il badge che scandisce malignamente il tempo. La routine del ritmo aziendale che diventa ossessione. Le manie degli impiegati; a un passo dalla psicosi. La sindrome antisociale dellrsquo;open-space. Le figure clownesche dei capufficio; tronfi della loro incompetenza. I giorni che invece di allargarsi in un presente vivo si spengono con monotonia uno sullrsquo;altro. Le pause ndash; pausa-aria; pausa-mela; pausa-sclero ndash; sono le uniche boccate di sollievo. Fincheacute; Alice non scopre la pausa-papera! Osservando da dietro la recinzione dellrsquo;azienda i pennuti che vivono liberi nel loro stagno; ad Alice si rivela una nuova filosofia di vita; una possibilitagrave; di salvezza; di liberazionehellip;

8 of 8 people found the following review helpful. Wonderful!By D. B. JamesKonans images of flowers are wonderful; accurate in detail but artistic in feeling; and each one in this book is a delight to linger over. Interest in the "outside world" was high in early 20th Century Japan. Tanigami Konan was a renowned artist who; in 1917; began to produce a series of prints to illustrate varieties of exotic flowers; especially those of the Western world; in a traditional Japanese format. The prints were received with great enthusiasm and acclaim; and theyre still sought after by collectors. Leave it to Dover Books; one of the best in the business; to offer such a modestly-priced book with so many beautiful reproductions of Konans prints. Buy it for yourself. Buy it for a gift. Its perfectly lovely.2 of 2 people found the following review helpful. Absolutely BeautifulBy N. L. McmillanI associate most Japanese woodblock prints with artists like Hiroshige who concentrated on landscapes; street scenes and figures. This is the first book Ive seen on the subject of flowers and they are breathtaking; striking composition and colors. A true inspiration for floral artists. The reproduction is excellent; the paper is thick and the colors are true. A real bargain.2 of 2 people found the following review helpful. japanese flower printsBy helene cabellOnly the Japanese artists develop such a powerful style The briliant or subtle coloring; depending on the plant. is always suitable for the variety pictured.
