It turned out that someone is engaged in the creation of spring street-look, others are trying to find interesting recipes, some fall into personal development, and someone just missed the romance. So we made a selection of books that are able to meet the needs of fans and admirers of Zhytomyr.Travel
Katazhyna Tusk “Your style”
The advice of Polish blogger Kasia Tusk will be interesting not only because she is the daughter of the famous Polish politician Donald Tusk. More photos, concise advice original comments – signature style Polish blogger. But life hacking, which is divided Kasia, will help to create an image of any girl: basic wardrobe, color combinations, small details, simple and neat hairstyle … voila – unique individual style. Since 2011, the model and photographer Kasia Tusk shares tips in a personal blog “Make Life Easier”, which since 2013 has broken records of popularity. But for some reason I was surprised when she was addressed from the publishing house: “When I first read the message that someone was interested in publishing my book abroad, I quickly decided that this was some kind of provocation of a journalist with a bad sense of humor…But when a courier with a foreign parcel and a copy of my book in another language knocked on my door, I felt really proud – someone outside Poland appreciated my work, although few people had heard about my blog or family ties there. Really, strange feeling”, – modestly the woman adds. The benefits of a small “encyclopedia of style” is obvious, because unnecessary things in your wardrobe will definitely be much less thanks to the advice of Katazhyna Tusk.

Miljenko Jergović “Inshallah, Madonna, Inshallah”
The word “Inshallah” means “all the will of God”. Another meaning is “if we live”. Anyone who says “Inshallah”, not simply has in mind the future, and expresses sincere hope that all will be well, and expectations are met. Usually singing folk songs-the personification of the soul of the people, so Milenko Jergović and used the stories of the Bosnian Serbian and in tune with them Dalmatian songs for writing prose collection about life in Bosnia. A Christian writer who lived among Bosnian Muslims for many years described life as it is with love and longing. One of the best contemporary Bosnian Croat writers translates through his works the conviction that devotion, self-sacrifice, honesty and decency do not depend on religious affiliation. Jergović’s works were translated into more than 20 languages of the world and, no doubt, like the Ukrainian readers and readers.

This is the first Buddhist monk who came to the West and began to spread the ideas of Buddhism. In 2007, for the protection of human rights Tenzyn Giatso was awarded the highest us civil medal – the Gold medal. In his book, the political and spiritual leader talks about the concept of universal responsibility, secular ethics and religious harmony. For all conscious people, regardless of their faith and beliefs, there will be an interesting mix of Western and Eastern views – pragmatic and rational and spiritual and enlightened. According to the author, a real leader should not only take care of making a profit in difficult economic conditions, but also think about the consequences of decisions. The author expresses the indisputable idea that any successful business is based on values.
Chevalier, Tracy “The Girl with a pearl earring”
A painting by the Dutch painter of the seventeenth century Johannes Vermeer involves a lot of mysteries. Sold for only two guilders and thirty cents after two hundred years after its creation, the picture in the end has got to be one of the best museums in Europe of the Mauritshuis in 1902 where he is today. There are several versions about the heroine works: someone says that it was the daughter of the artist; others saw the daughter of a patron of Rovena, the patron Saint of the wizard. The author of the third version was the American-British writer Tracy Chevalier, who says that the painting depicts a maid-mistress Grid, whose name supposedly means pearl. The plot unfolds around the hidden feelings and social stereotypes of those times. Translation in forty languages, three times was nominated for the Oscar screen version and many awards – is not a worthy occasion to get acquainted with the novel? And most importantly – the colorful life of the Dutch town of Delft in the middle of the XVII century and the mysterious circumstances of the “artistic crime” of the poor artist in the book-assumption “the Girl with the name of the pearl earring” from the master of the historical novel Tracy Chevalier.
Please give good books to people you love. They embody not only all the wisdom of the world, but also the best human feelings.
