My Favourite Book — Моя любимая книга

My favourite book is a novel «Loneliness on the Net» by Janusz Leon Wisniewski. It is a contemporary Polish author, computer scientist and chemist, sixty-one years old. He wrote a series of other books, including «Repeating Fate» and «Molecules of Emotions», but «Loneliness on the Net» made him world famous. This story has been translated into many languages. It was also screened in 2006, though I haven’t watched the movie.

Now let me tell you some details about this book. It is average, three hundred and twenty-eight pages, I’ve read it in a few days. It is a captivating love story with a dramatic ending. The main characters are a man and a woman. They get acquainted on the Internet and start communication. Soon, they fall in love with each other. The woman is married, and it is an unhappy marriage. She is going to leave her husband and be with the main character, but, at the last moment, changes her mind. The main character

is totally frustrated. He continues to write e-mails to his love every day during one year, but he never gets an answer. He decides to commit suicide.

There are two endings in the book. After some time, the author added the second epilogue, in which the main character doesn’t kill himself and continues to live. I guess, it’s up to the reader, which ending to choose.

I love this book, because it is both intellectual and moving. The beauty of the author’s language and the breadth of his knowledge impressed me. Janusz Wisniewski is a scientist with academic degrees and he mentions a lot of facts from different fields of knowledge. He does it gracefully, so the reader is never bored. At the same time, the author is an observant philosopher and a man of deep feeling. I truly enjoyed reading his remarks!

Моя любимая книга — роман «Одиночество в сети» Януша Леона Вишневского. Это современный польский автор, ученый в области вычислительных технологий и химик,

ему шестьдесят один год. Он также написал серию других книг, включая «Повторение судьбы» и «Молекулы эмоций», но мировую славу ему принесла книга «Одиночество в сети». Эту историю перевели на множество языков. Также в 2006 году по ней сняли фильм, правда я его не смотрела.

Теперь давайте я расскажу вам о книге немного подробнее. Она среднего объема, триста двадцать восемь страниц, я прочитала ее за несколько дней. Это захватывающая история любви с драматичным концом. Главные герои — мужчина и женщина. Они знакомятся по интернету и начинают общаться. Вскоре они влюбляются друг в друга. Женщина замужем, и ее брак несчастливый. Она собирается уйти от своего мужа и быть вместе с главным героем, но в последний момент передумывает. Главный герой совершенно выбит из колеи. Он продолжает писать электронные письма своей возлюбленной каждый день на протяжении года, но не получает ни одного ответа. Он решает покончить с собой.

В книге есть две концовки. Спустя какое-то время автор добавил второй эпилог, в котором главный герой не убивает себя и продолжает жить. Наверное, это зависит от читателя — какую концовку выбрать.

Я люблю эту книгу, потому что она одновременно умная и трогательная. Меня впечатлили красота авторского стиля и широта его познаний. Януш Вишневский — ученый с академическими степенями, и он приводит множество фактов из разных областей знания. Он делает это изящно, так что читателю никогда не бывает скучно. В то же время автор — наблюдательный философ и глубоко чувствующий человек. Я получила огромное удовольствие, читая его заметки!
