The Lost Flowers of Alice Hart

Product Information

Tenho como amigas Twig e Candy Baby. Meu deus como as queria abraçar mais uma vez. Senti o conforto delas quando estava com Alice. A segurança. A casa... There are some powerful and highly relevant themes explored in The Lost Flowers of Alice Hart, all of which are subjected to the accomplished hand of Holly Ringland. While there is heartbreaking sadness in the form of loss, domestic violence, lost love, betrayal, long held secrets, survival and trauma. On the other hand, there are themes of renewal, acceptance and self fulfillment. It takes real skill to balance the careful dichotomy between sadness and hope, but Ringland gets it just right. As a debut writer, I was blown away by her talent.

About halfway through the series, we leap forward in time (in an otherwise exceptionally languorously paced endeavour) to Alice in her early 20s (now played by Alycia Debnam-Carey) getting her first job and her first proper boyfriend. This unleashes a whole new raft of questions, about whether we can ever really outrun our pasts, escape our traumas and break patterns imprinted on us before we can consciously reject them. She’d read about alchemy in her library books; she knew the tale of Rumpelstiltskin. Her father’s shed was where he spun straw into gold.” Alice’le birlikte, birçok kadının geçmişinin ve yıllardır süre gelen aile mirasının, farklı kişiler açısından anlatılması çok hoştu. 3. şahıs anlatımı olsa da, bir olaya hem Alice’in açısından hem de karşısındaki kişi açısından bakmak konuyu zenginleştirmişti bana göre. Thorfiled kadınlarının 4 kuşak süren hikayelerini kısa kısa da olsa okumak hoşuma gitti. In episode 5 of "The Lost Flowers of Alice Hart," Alice confesses that she started the fire that killed her parents and unborn sibling. Depois desenvolvo, tenho que sentar-me e organizar ideias, sentimentos, tudo... Mas já adivinharam...

The Lost Flowers of Alice Hart spans twenty years, you follow Alice growing up and a unique coming of age story, as an adult and she doesn’t want to make the same mistakes as her mother. Alice always felt like she was waiting for something that’s just never going to come, in the end she discovers whats missing and it’s due to the big secret that's been kept from her and she can't keep running forever. On the plus side there is that beautiful cover! And behind all the melodrama there was a good story trying to get out. Some of the characters, like the Flowers, were interesting and the descriptions of the Australian countryside were detailed and very effective. You can watch the official trailer for The Lost Flowers of Alice Hart here on Youtube. The Lost Flowers Of Alice Hart explained: a full plot recap Lui Alice îi place sa citească, este un personaj care, prin iubirea față de cărți, se va salva si va deveni cineva. Este modul ei de a-și împlini destinul. Weirdly enough, the parts of this book that really shone were the descriptions of abusive relationships, which came across as visceral, authentic and real. I became a bit more tolerant of Alice's weird "oh my glob so hot' reaction towards Dylan when I realised that she was doomed to repeat the same mistakes of her mother, and misunderstood abusive behaviour as passion.Alice will be a victim of an episode of violence by Dylan’s hand. She will discover the violent side of men and will ask for help from June and Twig. After returning to the farm, June intends to fix the mistake she made in life: she reveals the truth about Charlie to Alice, and Alice will leave to meet her brother. After meeting Sally again, she will also learn the truth about the fire: it wasn’t her who killed her parents; it was Agnes, her mother, to kill her father Clem while he was choking her. Agnes tried to save Alice and escape with her to June’s farm, but she dies intoxicated by the smoke.

Most of the time he spent inside followed the awful things he did. But when he came out, he was always better. Alice had decided his shed held a transformational kind of magic, as if within its walls was an enchanted mirror, or a spinning wheel. Bir diğer sebebi de kitabın çevirisiydi. Avustralya’da geçen kitapta, yerel bazı kelimeler, hitap şekilleri ya da yerel halka özgü bazı isimler kullanılmıştı ve bu kelimelerin anlamları ya da ne oldukları dip notla belirtilmemişti. Mesela en sık kullanılanlardan birisi “kakadu” kelimesiydi ve bu kelimenin Avustralya’da bir papağan türü olduğuna dair hiçbir açıklama yoktu. Bu tarz kelimeleri, okuyucunun bildiği var sayılmış ya da cümlenin işleyişinde anlaması beklenmişti. Çevirideki en büyük hatalardan bir diğeri de, June’un, Alice’in babaannesi, anneannesi ve büyükannesi olarak, farklı farklı çevrilmiş olmasıydı. Bu tarz yanlışlar ve özensiz çeviri, duygusal bölümlerde çok umursamasam da kitabın akıcılığını ciddi anlamda etkiledi. Buna rağmen orijinal kapak ve orijinal isim kullanarak, doğru bir seçim yaptığı için yayınevini ayrıca tebrik ederim. For Alice and her mother, it’s like living on the brim of a volcano, never knowing when it will erupt. After Alice barely survives a family tragedy, she is taken in by her Akubra, Blundstone wearing grandmother, June. A flower farmer, June teaches traumatised Alice the ‘language’ of Australian native flowers, which becomes a way to say things that are too hard to speak.

Summary

This is a coming of age story. Alice Hart's father is a violent, volatile man. When Alice was nine years old, something horrific occurs which will see her sent to live on a wildflower farm, with her paternal grandmother she didn't know existed. I loved the description of Thornton and the way it was run, exclusively by women, for whom Thornton was a sanctuary and a refuge. I was looking forward to getting to know more of the women on the farm. But midway through, the novel takes a different turn and sort of loses its way, pretty much like Alice. A well-written, credible coming of age story, with elements of domestic abuse, its consequences and surviving it, turns into a melodramatic mess. I can't stand it when characters/people create unnecessary dramas by not talking to each other, and in this case, it was completely over-the-top, inexplicable and incredulous. I realise it was necessary to create conflict, but I didn't buy it and I found it frustrating. In the weatherboard house at the end of the lane, nine-year-old Alice Hart sat at her desk by the window and dreamed of ways to set her father on fire.”
