dear pal, unfortunately i will only apply for istanbul. i would like to work in the industry also. it would be easier in my country.
hey oiseau,how are you my dear friend? how is life in us? it has been a year since we last talked. hope everything is alright =) i'm in izmir (my home town in turkey) just finished my ma. hopefully i will start phd at september. let's see..take care..peace..
Coucou Sohom! I finally decided to check my Shelfari account and request ur friendship :))) hope you are enjoying your readings and writing your papers. Gros bisous
I'm two years late, but you asked about Gloria Naylor's Mama Day and Linden Hills. Mama Day is a magical realism book about a matriarch who aides her descendants with superantural help. Linden Hills is about 3 generations of patriarchas who grew up in the same town, with the same name. I'd read Linden Hills first, than Mama Day (because of the magical realism).
oi ki kore add korbo toke?

hey sohomjit,how are you?? how are the studies going? i hope everything is just fine =) are you still in usa? i am in london, i am making MA in film studies. i think this is my final decision for a career. the weather is always rainy here. so most of the time i am at home, watching movies regularly. if you have any plans to come to london, you have a place here =)take care..peace..
So wonderful that you can be here in the USA at an historic and promisng time like this! Please let me know how I can get in touch with you. I recall that you are not too far away from me now?

Hello ;-)Well in our feminist course this year we didn't touch Rich at all, instead we focused on de Beauvoir, Millett, Rose, Kristeva, Irigaray, Cixous, Anzaldua...etc. Most of all I liked an essay by Spivak about the subultern woman, the Indian widow who has to sacrifice her life as soon as her husband dies... I suppose you know it, right?Some years ago I read The Bell-Jar but i'd love to give it another try :) But i totally agree, her poetry was wonderful too...Good luck with you Phd! I'd be extremely interested if you chose the lit department but even for the theoretical one, please tell me what it'll be about ok? :DGreetings from Greece*!^_^
Hello!Thanks for being my friend*I like your comments too, very much :)What else except Mrs Dalloway would you recommend? I have to admit...I am afraid of Virginia Woolf!! :PJoyce's Dubliners is my favourite, I can't find my way through Ulysses yet... and it has stayed in my Reading section for so many days now! :PBut I've started with the context, analysis and introduction to major characters from the SparkNotes to help me...Ahh, don't remind me of the Penelopiad, it felt like a cold joke that a friend tells you and you can't help feeling ridiculous for laughing pretendedly... :-SI love Plath too, I was glad we had to write about "Daddy" at my last Uni exam this year and it was totally unexpected - the prof told us she'd give us a random poem to analyze in terms of feminist literary theory and I was thrilled she chose this one! :DNice talking to you soho^.^ !! I'm Eva ;)PS- Phd of...?
WOW scholar! Keep up the good work so that u can baanto lots of gyaan to me! Have a great u.s. stint.
heyy oiseau,how are you? are you in US right know. i hope you are fine :)i couldn't make a trip to india, sadly :( but i was fooling around in europe. i travelled bratislava, hamburg, koln, groningen, amsterdam... i am going to prague next week. and then romania. I made a contact with a turkish director. he is going to make a film that will take place in romania, bulgaria then turkey which will take a month. i had the chance to work in his set, hopefully.. what are you doing these days?warm regards and best wishes..
