September of 1919th. Young Tristan goes in the English depth, to pass the copula of letters of Уилла with that he militated on First world. But letters - only pretext for this journey. He is oppressed by a secret that he already a long ago carries in the soul. Submerging in remembrances about senseless and cruel war, about friendship with Уиллом, about that, how this friendship did him happy and unhappy simultaneously, Tristan tries to understand, who Уилл was and who he - betrayer, hero or victim. Sense of guilt and shame looms up shade in the background this novel. John Бойн extraordinarily able conducts a reader on the circles of the history, showing that many things that we are ashamed do not deserve it, and acts that we are proud of at times frequently are veritable disgrace.John Бойн is an author more than ten of novels, and his writer gift is extraordinarily various. Бойна has very different books, but him a writer credo unchanging: he does not get tired to remind us, that it is possible to become a man, only passing by suffering.A book contains an unprintable bad language.

Книга Абсолютист
Роман Джона Бойна "Книга Абсолютист" оставил у меня глубокое впечатление. Сюжет, разворачивающийся в сентябре 1919 года, погружает читателя в мир, где война оставила неизгладимый след на душах людей. Главный герой Тристан, отправляясь в английскую глубинку, не только передает письма своему другу Уиллу, но и пытается разобраться в своих чувствах, связанных с войной и дружбой. Бойн мастерски показывает, как чувство вины и стыда могут преследовать человека даже после окончания войны. Его стиль написания завораживает, а глубокие размышления о человеческой природе заставляют задуматься о том, что действительно важно в жизни. Однако, стоит отметить, что некоторые моменты книги могут показаться слишком мрачными и тяжелыми для восприятия. Тем не менее, это произведение стоит прочитать, чтобы понять, как страдания формируют личность.
