About this deal

I'm a big fan of Jimm Juree and her eccentric family, a veritable postmodern Famous Five of Thailand. I was delighted to happen across The Amok Runners at my local Council library. Unanticipated Christmas holiday reading! I love both of Colin Cotterill's series which feature ex-journalist Jimm Juree and Dr. Siri Paiboun. He has a wonderful sense of humor, and I've learned so much about the people and culture of Thailand and Laos. Unfortunately, The Amok Runners is a bit of a hot mess. Let me explain after a short digression. Zweig'ın karakterleri hislerini hep yoğun yaşıyor. Bu kitapla birlikte buna artık kesin kanaat getirdim. Bilinmeyen Bir Kadının Mektubu'nda aşkı doruk noktasında yaşayan bir kadın, Yakıcı Sır'da tutkuyu ve şehveti doruk noktasında yaşayıp onun için her şeyi yapan bir adam, Amok Koşucusu'nda da pişmanlığı en uç noktada yaşayan bir adam vardı örneğin. En azından bana göre.

Retrieved 6 November 2011. hantu belian A widely accepted explanation links amok with male honour (amok by women and children is virtually unknown). [14]Ten years ago, Colin became involved in child protection in the region and set up an NGO in Phuket which he ran for the first two years. After two more years of study in child abuse issues, and one more stint in Phuket, he moved on to ECPAT, an international organization combating child prostitution and pornography. He established their training program for caregivers. Though the DSM-IV does not differentiate between them, observers historically described two forms of amok: beramok and amok. Beramok, considered to be more common, was associated with personal loss and preceded by a period of depression and brooding. Amok, the rarer form, was believed to stem from rage, perceived insult or a vendetta against a person. [10] Historical and cross-cultural comparisons [ edit ] A pengamok being captured, 1883.

It was published in 1922, and it was an immediate great success and was translated into several languages immediately. During the interwar years, Zweig was the author who was most translated into other languages, worldwide. I think this is the most important fact that may act in his defence. His writings were welcomed by many different cultures. His mind was as cosmopolitan as it could be.L'io narrante, tanto caro a Zweig, permette al lettore di accomodarsi accanto al vero protagonista della storia (un medico europeo che fa ritorno in patria da una colonia d'Oriente) sul ponte di una nave che sta riportando entrambi a casa e di rivivere, attraverso le sue parole, la sua incomprensibile follia, la sua delirante ebbrezza, il suo tragico rammarico. Borrowed from English amok, from Portuguese amouco, from Malay amuk ( “ to go on a killing spree ” ).
