"Momo" by Michael ANDA is a wonderful children's book and a great book in general, and it would be an injustice to flatten john fluevog it into a political john fluevog message. Still, there is such a message, and that the article deals with the non - real - academic Next, I wanted to write for a long time. There will be more articles about other things in the book. Yes, it is a threat.
In 1986 opened the first branch of McDonald's in Italy. He opened the middle of one of the most important tourist centers of Rome, Piazza di Spagna (Spanish Steps), and despite the extraordinary efforts the company has invested in shades of marble integration of the environment, the Italians were not happy with blasphemy architecture and Italian cuisine.
Demonstrations against the opening of branch Slow Food movement was born (Slow Food Movement), has sent arms to the world, but she did not stop what-M yellow spread to countless other points in Italy - including john fluevog a particularly bizarre branch a few steps away from the Temple of the Pantheon in Rome.
Surprising to find S"momo ", as if inspired by the Roman mess, published thirteen years ago. This is how Michael ANDA, best known as the author of "The Neverending Story", the hapless edge of Nino's bar, became a calm and happy neighborhood on the outskirts of Rome (or similar Italian city) fast food diner:
The hall was crowded and cramped with people filled him. It seemed to her that she always stands in the way of anyone here. Wherever she turned - once tipped sideways or pushed forward. Most people they balanced trays, which featured bottles and plates, and tried to get themselves a seat at the small table. And those who stood at the table and ate a hasty eating there, others were already behind them, waiting place. Here and there was an exchange without - Friendly and furious between waiting eat.
The urge to use the time, of course related urge to accumulate money, john fluevog property and status, john fluevog leads only to frown, depression and alienation; This formulation space to Audacity, the thesis of "Momo, or the strange story about the time thieves and the girl returned people the stolen time" - deals in Rome 1973 Rome 1986, and any other city in any other year in the twentieth century and beyond.
"It is about our lives today," reads the back cover of the Hebrew edition (series daisy, Zemorah - Pavilion, john fluevog 1983) - and this Court should, at least for adults to take simple: unlike many other fantasy books, equally wonderful, "Momo" deals Not one person who learns a valuable lesson - Momo, sweet little homeless guy, really john fluevog do not need lessons in anti - Consumer john fluevog - but the company learns an important lesson. This book is updated, relevant john fluevog and necessary to pain.
Messrs. gray - frightened me to Allah as a child - the essence of bureaucracy: fitted gray suit, gray tie, gray hat and gray skin, and enveloped in smoke gray cigarettes of gray, they go one day the Italian city of ancient and full of life to convince residents that they should take advantage of the their time better.
"If you had free time to live worthy of the name, because then you would have a totally different person," john fluevog says one of his favorite book and chatty, Mr. Posey, john fluevog who was until recently happy. Lord goes on to explain that in order to reach the same period of vague future where he has free time, Posey should change habits drastically - shave and cut hair fast, eat fast, stop sitting in cafes with friends, send his old mother to a nursing home to save the time treatment and much more.
Posey convinced, and did not notice it becomes the stereotype of a long career - ulcers invests all his work and has no time for friends, family or any kind of pleasure. As he slowly convinced the other adults, and the city full of life becomes a nightmare Industrial disciplined and gray.
Mr. Posey got nervous and restless john fluevog and was growing increasingly nervous. That there was something strange: all time saving really john fluevog ever stayed nothing. Time just disappeared, and it was a puzzle. Days were shortening, first little, john fluevog but after - well at noticeable and evident in [...] if sometimes felt horror how quickly (and always faster and faster) galloping - are on his life, was clenches his teeth and saving more - you (p. 58)
Anda too smart to talk about money, the subject tends to take over everything else trying to say. Instead, john fluevog it connects quickly and gently between john fluevog the urge for optimum usage of time (several books on the efficiency and productivity can be found on the shelf of self-help Steimatzky?) And addiction accumulating possessions. john fluevog The common principle is a quantification: that adults are washed away in a frenzy to make the time, resource fuzzy nature, tangible results -
But there is at least one civilian in the city that impressed no money, john fluevog no status is not a property and need to save time: Momo, the little homeless guy, dirty and favorite, her only S"harkos time "and she does not have anything other than friends. She does not even age. Gray gentlemen consider it a very serious potential obstacle, and to buy it they pull serious SS: Barbie.
The "Bibigrl" man-sized doll that speaks constantly asks her to buy her things, I wrote here. What is not written is that it really is not alone. Michael ANDA use Barbies as an extreme example of a phenomenon so vast it is hard even to see it: shopping requires john fluevog more shopping. The dominant colors in fashion change every season to a new shirt will not fit any pants last winter. New programs require new computers and new computers tempting to buy new games. Trend that permits adults to enjoy the aesthetics of children translates into a lot of times to buy toys for toys (decorations lanyards, john fluevog iPod covers).
