It was the dawn of science and technology. Anything seemed possible even the creation of life itself.

Victor
Frankenstein becomes obsessed with this idea and works relentlessly to prove his theories; but the glory he
imagined becomes a living nightmare - not only for him, but for his friends and family too.

Mary Shelley’s gothic horror story-frankenstein - was first published in 1818 and has been the inspiration
behind numerous stage productions and films - many of which strayed a long way away from her original
masterpiece. Classical comic presenting a full-colored graphic remains true to this classic tale, bringing the
original story to life which has never been created before.

This graphic novel is available in two versions: Original Text and Quick Text editions. The Original Text stays
faithful to Shelley's original text, while the Quick Text brings the story up to date by presenting the text into a
more simplified style so that the tale is accessible to all readers.

The quick Text edition will allow you to soak up a general feeling for characters and locations, while the
Original Text version will help you easily slip into the language in which the novel was written.

Even if you're not studying the original, this graphic novel is worth buying. It's a great story, and should be
one that everyone has the chance to read. Now, thanks to this release, even those who don't particularly
like to read too much are given the chance to find this tale and hopefully it may encourage them to search
out the original book too.

As with the previous classical comics, the presentation is first class. The best grade glossy paper really helps
to set this graphic novel head and shoulders above the usual comic book releases on the market. Not only,
that you also get a pretty comprehensive biography of Shelley; Mary Shelley's family Tree; a feature that
explains what life was like in the year of the book's release; and a brief

Look on how Frankenstein has been adapted to many different formats over the years.
Itu adalah awal dari sains dan teknologi. Segala sesuatu tampak mungkin bahkan penciptaan kehidupan itu
sendiri. Victor Frankenstein menjadi terobsesi dengan ide ini dan bekerja tanpa henti untuk membuktikan
teorinya; tetapi kemuliaan yang dia bayangkan menjadi mimpi buruk yang hidup - tidak hanya untuknya,
tetapi juga untuk teman dan keluarga.

Cerita horor gothic-frankenstein karya Mary Shelley - pertama kali diterbitkan pada tahun 1818 dan telah
menjadi inspirasi di balik berbagai produksi panggung dan film - banyak di antaranya menyimpang jauh dari
mahakarya aslinya. Komik klasik yang menghadirkan grafis penuh warna tetap setia pada kisah klasik ini,
menghidupkan cerita orisinal yang belum pernah dibuat sebelumnya.

Novel grafis ini tersedia dalam dua versi: Edisi Teks Asli dan Teks Cepat. Teks Asli tetap setia pada teks asli
Shelley, sedangkan Teks Cepat membawa cerita terkini dengan menyajikan teks ke dalam gaya yang lebih
disederhanakan sehingga kisah tersebut dapat diakses oleh semua pembaca.

Edisi Teks cepat akan memungkinkan Anda untuk menyerap perasaan umum untuk karakter dan lokasi,
sedangkan versi Teks Asli akan membantu Anda dengan mudah masuk ke bahasa di mana novel itu ditulis.

Bahkan jika Anda tidak mempelajari aslinya, novel grafis ini layak untuk dibeli. Ini adalah cerita yang hebat,
dan harus menjadi salah satu yang setiap orang memiliki kesempatan untuk membaca. Sekarang, berkat rilis
ini, bahkan mereka yang tidak terlalu suka membaca diberi kesempatan untuk menemukan kisah ini dan
semoga dapat mendorong mereka untuk mencari buku aslinya juga.

Seperti komik klasik sebelumnya, penyajiannya kelas satu. Kertas glossy kelas terbaik benar-benar membantu
mengatur novel grafis ini lebih tinggi dari rilis buku komik biasa di pasaran. Tidak hanya itu, Anda juga
mendapatkan biografi Shelley yang cukup lengkap; Pohon keluarga Mary Shelley; fitur yang menjelaskan
seperti apa kehidupan di tahun rilis buku; dan singkat

 ‘Laskar Pelangi’: The Audacity of Hope

This is a movie adapted from a best-selling Indonesian novel. It took 40 days of filming on
Belitung Island, Bangka-Belitung province. Involving 12 local actors, it reportedly cost Rp8 billion.
With all the efforts of transforming Laskar Pelangi (Rainbow Warrior) into a moving picture, will
it satisfy readers’ imaginations?

Laskar Pelangi, the novel, was written by Andrea Hirata in 2005, based on his own experiences. It
is about an inspiring teacher and her 10 students in the poverty-stricken Kampung Gantong in
Belitung. The poor condition of their school building does not dampen their high spirits and
hopes for a better future.

Two years later, the novel became a phenomenon in Indonesia literature. With its humanistic
touch, Laskar Pelangi has sold more than 500,000 copies and has won the position of Must-Read
Novel in every corner of the nation’s bookshops and media review pages. It has finally overcome
the domination of teen-lit, chick-lit and even religious novels, the popular theme of today.

Andrea entrusted the filming of the story to the respected figures in the film industry, Mira
Lesmana and Riza, as producer and film director. In July 2007, Mira and Riri started the per-
production, which took a year to finish. Together with the scriptwriter Salman Aristo they

A Beautiful Mind is a biographical movie about John Forbes Nash Junior, mathematical
genius with hard fate. At the beginning of this carrier he has made enormous contribution in
the field of Game Theory, which was a revolution in this mathematical area and almost
brought international fame to the author. The movie was filmed in 2001 by Ron Howard and
today it is called modern classics: a true drama, making you think and evoking emotions.

Such movie, telling us about the life of a famous person, are always difficult to assess,
because any such creations somehow pretend to be biographical ones. But in fact they are
just a glance of one particular producer on the life of another individual. Of course, much
depends on the actor who will perform the role of the protagonist and after watching A
Beautiful Mind I will agree with this once again.
A Beautiful Mind adalah film biografi tentang John Forbes Nash Junior, jenius matematika
dengan nasib yang sulit. Pada awal kariernya ini, ia telah memberikan kontribusi besar di
bidang Teori Permainan, yang merupakan revolusi di bidang matematika ini dan hampir
membawa ketenaran internasional bagi penulisnya. Film ini difilmkan pada tahun 2001 oleh
Ron Howard dan hari ini disebut klasik modern: drama sejati, membuat Anda berpikir dan
membangkitkan emosi.

Film semacam itu, yang menceritakan kepada kita tentang kehidupan orang terkenal, selalu
sulit untuk dinilai, karena karya semacam itu entah bagaimana menjadi biografi. Namun
sebenarnya mereka hanyalah pandangan sekilas dari satu produser tertentu tentang
kehidupan individu lain. Tentu saja, banyak tergantung pada aktor yang akan memainkan
peran protagonis dan setelah menonton A Beautiful Mind saya akan setuju dengan ini sekali
lagi.

 CAPTAIN PHILLIPS

Captain Phillips is an upcoming 2013 American biographical action thriller film directed by Paul
Greengrass based upon the book, A Captain's Duty: Somali Pirates, Navy SEALs, and Dangerous
days at Sea, by Richard Phillips with Stephan Tatty, and starring Tom Hanks. It is produced by
Scott Rudin, Dana Brunetti, and Michael De Luca. The film tells a biopic of merchant mariner
Captain Richard Phillips, who was taken hostage for several days by Somali Pirates when the
container ship Maersk Alabama which sailed from southern Oman drown along the coast of
Somalia and then to Kenya was hijacked in 2009.

Captain Richard Phillips (Tom Hanks), a veteran merchant mariner, still lives in his native New
England, and he's a plainspoken family man full of anxiety about the economically bleak new
world his kids are facing. When his wife (Chaterine Keener) drops him off at the airport, we can
see reverse her. The film then cuts to Somalia, a land of dust and poverty, where the pirates are
recruited for their mission as if they were migrant farm workers lining up to be chosen for that
day's labor. Greengrass doesn't have to fill in much about the violent, chaotic breakdown of
Somalia to let us know that these men have little choice.

The film does not generate quite the same level of excruciating suspense as some of Greengrass'
previous triumphs, but it nonetheless holds us hostage as it proceeds. As for the four Somali
immigrants, they are remarkably effective in their first professional acting gigs.
 CAPTAIN PHILLIPS

Captain Phillips adalah film thriller aksi biografi Amerika tahun 2013 mendatang yang
disutradarai oleh Paul Greengrass berdasarkan buku, A Captain's Duty: Somali Pirates, Navy
SEALs, and Dangerous days at Sea, oleh Richard Phillips dengan Stephan Tatty, dan dibintangi
oleh Tom Hanks. Film ini diproduksi oleh Scott Rudin, Dana Brunetti, dan Michael De Luca. Film
ini menceritakan sebuah film biografi pelaut pedagang Kapten Richard Phillips, yang disandera
selama beberapa hari oleh Perompak Somalia ketika kapal kontainer Maersk Alabama yang
berlayar dari Oman selatan tenggelam di sepanjang pantai Somalia dan kemudian ke Kenya
dibajak pada tahun 2009.

Kapten Richard Phillips (Tom Hanks), seorang pelaut pedagang veteran, masih tinggal di negara
asalnya New England, dan dia adalah pria keluarga yang blak-blakan yang penuh kecemasan
tentang dunia baru yang suram secara ekonomi yang dihadapi anak-anaknya. Ketika istrinya
(Chaterine Keener) mengantarnya ke bandara, kita bisa melihat kebalikannya. Film kemudian
memotong ke Somalia, tanah debu dan kemiskinan, di mana para perompak direkrut untuk misi
mereka seolah-olah mereka adalah pekerja pertanian migran yang berbaris untuk dipilih untuk
pekerjaan hari itu. Greengrass tidak perlu menjelaskan banyak tentang kehancuran Somalia yang
penuh kekerasan dan kacau untuk memberi tahu kami bahwa orang-orang ini tidak punya
banyak pilihan.

Film ini tidak menghasilkan tingkat ketegangan yang sama seperti beberapa kemenangan
Greengrass sebelumnya, tetapi tetap menyandera kita saat berlanjut. Adapun empat imigran
Somalia, mereka sangat efektif dalam pertunjukan akting profesional pertama mereka.

Reading the three plots of Marry Higgins Clark in All Through the Night concern a stolen gold
ornamental cup, a missing baby, and a will which seems to be deceitful. To solve the
mystery, she revives her beloved characters; Alvirah, the former cleaning woman; and Willy
Meeham, the plumber who won the lottery. They left their life in Jackson Heights, Queens,
for an apartment on Central Park. The two have fun along the way solving the puzzle.

The pace is swift and the story is pure escape - totally fun Mary Higgins Clark. I admit,
however, that l am still trying to know what melody of the song "All Through the Night"

This holiday season, put aside your chores and curl up on couch with All Through the Night.

might just want to tuck a copy into someone's stocking or gift bag, as well.
Membaca tiga plot Marry Higgins Clark di All Through the Night menyangkut piala hias emas

misteri, dia menghidupkan kembali karakter kesayangannya; Alvirah, mantan petugas
kebersihan; dan Willy Meeham, tukang ledeng yang memenangkan lotre. Mereka meninggalkan
kehidupan mereka di Jackson Heights, Queens, untuk sebuah apartemen di Central Park.
Keduanya bersenang-senang sepanjang jalan memecahkan teka-teki.

Kecepatannya cepat dan ceritanya murni pelarian - Mary Higgins Clark yang benar-benar
menyenangkan. Saya akui, bagaimanapun, saya masih mencoba untuk mengetahui seperti apa
melodi dari lagu "All Through the Night" itu.

Musim liburan ini, kesampingkan tugas Anda dan meringkuk di sofa dengan All Through the
