LA LETTERATURA ITALIANA

Susanna Tamaro

" Va dove ti porta il cuore " 1996
( " Follow your heart " Иди за своим сердцем )

This is a book which I've just started reading in Italian .

It gained word-of-mouth success and became a bestseller!

" Be still and listen in silence to your heart. When it has spoken to you, rise up and follow it”,
thus ends Susanna Tamaro’s international bestselling novel Follow Your Heart.

 Translated into eighteen languages, this is an epistolary novel in which an elderly Italian lady, fearing her imminent end, writes to her granddaughter in America. Alternating between diary and memoire, the old lady recounts her past to her only remaining living relative. Understanding that this will be the last communication that she has with her granddaughter, the old lady tells her story in the hope of being understood, and, in some way, forgiven, by her young descendant.

First pages made me keep reading further and further, though I opened the last one to see what is there for me ))

Level of Italian : B1+ - B2
English translation is of the same difficulty

The book is full of wise quotes and appeals to your mind and your own past experiences.

👇In the comments, 2 versions are for you - Italian and English

Enjoy ❤️

next book prepared for you is written by a divorce lawyer . Yesss...... Don't miss the following post about the book 😉

ПРО УЧЕБНИКИ

( пост- меланхолия )

Нашла этот учебник случайно и застыла на секунду.
Потом подумала: " Напишу на русском пост, давно не писала на моем родном русском языке "

Об учебнике ( не реклама! )

Курс русского языка для иностранцев ,созданный по уровням в 2011 г. , очень похож на любимые учебники от Cambridge и Oxford ( и это здорово!) Методика коммуникативная и мне это тоже импонирует , ведь можно таааак расширить материал , таааак подстроить под ученика что получится конфетка 🍬!

Читаю задание о социальных ролях : " душа компании,тихоня,обжора,сплетница/сплетник, зануда,блогер и тд." Отрабатывает конструкции " Это человек,который....."
Тут и род существительного надо учесть и еще столько всего другого.
И я опять подумала, насколько это интересно быть носителем языка ,который знает язык с рождения ,и в то же самое время его открывает другому человеку как русскую матрешку , как ларчик с драгоценностями нашего наследия и традиций. Вспомнилось следующее:
У меня был такой короткий опыт,когда моя ученица Келли из Америки доверила мне этот процесс. Я почувствовала,что обучение - это всегда про доверие в первую очередь. До сих пор в это верю и исповедую такой подход. А Келли теперь живёт за тридевять земель, а я помню наши несколько месяцев вместе в классе как проявление высшего доверия друг к другу. На столе лежали учебники и как верные собачки заглядывали нам в глаза каждый раз ,когда мы их открывали . Такие книги как этот учебник или как любые другие,которые попадают ко мне в руки несут для меня особый смысл - это глубокая эмоциональная связь с моим учеником , это мостик доверия между нами, это наш способ вести диалог друг с другом , и это не просто глянцевые страницы ,таблицы,картинки и схемы, задания и бездушные буквы-буквы-слова . Нет. Это наши голоса и интонации ,тогда буквы оживают.
Бывает так , что мы меняем учебники и говорим ,что они нам не подходят. Почему? Кроме уровня и аналитических расчётов( они должны быть,безусловно) ,есть еще другое измерение - измерений чувств. Как мы себя чувствуем внутри этого учебника? Комфортно ли нам или холодно ? Случилось ли подключение моих настроек с настройками этой книги ?
Когда я её открываю и закрываю,что остаётся со мной ?

Если ничего не остается ( такое тоже бывает) ,то я всегда меняю учебник ,пока не загорится огонёк в наших глазах. Это не моя сентиментальность, а больше чуткость и синтония между нами ,учебником и языком. У нас тогда с Келли всё случилось и поэтому процесс шёл очень бодро и с удовольствием. Мы встретили этот учебник " по одёжке, но проводили по уму " )) Нам повезло.
А еще с особой теплотой храню на своих полочках учебники " FCE GOLD " ,потому что они для меня живые и каждая страничка прожита с моими студентами от начала до самого конца. Без остатка.
С доверием.

В итоге, возвращаясь к идее " русский язык для иностранцев " , то РКИ заскочил опять в мою голову и хочет резвиться 😄Посмотрим ... " точку ру" пока рано ставить .

📌Прикрепляю небольшой урок в комментариях ( Уровень B1 ) , полюбуйтесь как чудесно рассказывают про предлоги и падежи русского языка и объясняют " бабочки в животе "

Ваша Юлия ❤️

✔️ JAMES J.SEXTON
" How to stay in love " ( 2019 )

288 pages

English level : B2 - C1

Hi, dear friends!

I was drawn in by James's charismatic personality and his straight talking delivery while watching a podcast on YouTube
( the link will be below paired with the pdf copy of his book)

" Nobody knows the dark side of marriage. It seems James is the one who does ...hmmm" - that's what I was thinking about ))

Hard-hitting divorce lawyer shares his insight and wisdom to help you ( us ) reverse engineer a healthy, fulfilling romantic relationship.

41 chapters , of an enjoyable length though, reveal all of the what-not-to-dos for couples who want to build a lasting relationship. He tells an unvarnished truth about love and marriage.

Love is loaned. It isn't permanently gifted. We all want more than not to get divorced or not break up. We want, and deserve, to find genuine joy in our connection to our romantic partner and deeper understanding of ourselves in our decisions to share our life with another. We've put a man on the moon,built thriving cities and,incredibly, almost impossibly, against insurmountable obstacles, even found time to invent s'mores and Netflix. We can do better or,at least, not so badly at keeping our romantic relationships alive and thriving


Being divorced himself, James still believes that there's something magical about romantic relationship and love. He aims at navigating the challenges of love using his candid wit and beautiful English! Yes, the text is far from being a poetry or a canonic spiritual narrative,rather,it embraces you with LIVE English right out from Introduction.

Chapter 1 starts

If you've thought long and hard about what marriage means, congratulations: You are different from many of my clients ( that may be one reason they are not still married) I'm forced by professional necessity to think deeply about marriage. I get to analyze it, though in its broken, Humpty-Dumpty-after-the-fall form, from so many angles - the psychological/ emotional, the sexual, the financial, the parental ,the practical/ logistical . If we can stand back for a moment from an institution so rich with powerful associations - many very good, some not so good- it's helpful to recognize that MARRIAGE IS A TECHNOLOGY. Like every technology, or tool, it solves certain problems, intentionally, and creates new problems, unintentionally.
What is the problem to which marriage is the solution?
Take a minute to think about it . Or three."

For me, James knows what's he's talking about ❗️

I would recommend the book even if you are living on a different planet called " Single people unite ! " 😅

Wry and illuminating book with plenty of humor and realistic practical ideas 😇

"
You can be right or you can be happy "


Your Yulia ,
With love ❤️

👍Немного итальянской философии от моего любимого канала 👍

"La speranza - puo' salvarti o puo' distruggerti 🔥"

"Надежда - она может как и спасти тебя, так и разрушить ...."

Лучше и не скажешь !

8️⃣ Марта совсем скоро !!!

Hello, dear friends!

This post is about us . About us, women, and our

🔤🔤🔤🔤🌷🔤

The book caught my eye by its bright cover and the title " СИЯТЬ ВСЕГДА " made me stop. I've always loved Spa, skincare and fresh cosmetics recipes, hair-maintenance and so called " DIY beauty and wellness " books and magazines.

Stephanie Gerber wrote " Hello Glow" for us in 2016 .A huge thank you to her 👍

In
Hello Glow, we are introduced to the world of home spa treatments. Gerber shares the benefits of using natural ingredients and essential oils in our beauty routines. She explains the process of creating a relaxing spa environment at home, including setting the mood with music and lighting.

Gerber begins with a variety of facial treatments, such as the
Brightening Geranium Moisturizer, which contains geranium essential oil,
and
the Cranberry Lip Gloss + Cheek Stain.
She also includes a Balance Rosemary-Thyme Toner, which I desperately want to try making.

Body Care

Moving on to body care,
Hello Glow offers a range of body scrubs, oils, and lotions.

A Revitalizing Herbal Detox Body Wrap ( обертывание ) using bentonite clay, and a Cellulite-Smoothing Kiwi Scrub are among the treatments.

Stephanie Gerber also shares recipes for creating your own

sunscreen
solid perfume
bath bombs ( бомбочки для принятия ванн )

In the
hair care section, Gerber provides recipes for natural shampoo, hair masks, and scalp treatments.
She explains the benefits of using ingredients like rosemary, coconut oil, and ginger for healthy hair. She also includes a
Color-Enhancing Hair Mask which uses hibiscus flowers to enhance natural hair color.

Wellness and Self-Care

Beyond the physical aspects of beauty,
Hello Glow also focuses on wellness and self-care. Gerber advocates for mindfulness and self-compassion as essential elements of beauty.

She suggests incorporating practices like meditation, gratitude journaling, and digital detox into our daily routines.

Furthermore, Gerber highlights the importance of a healthy diet for glowing skin and hair. She includes a section on beauty-boosting foods and shares recipes for nutritious smoothies and snacks.


DIY Beauty Products

One of the highlights of
Hello Glow is the extensive collection of DIY beauty product recipes. Gerber provides step-by-step instructions for making your own natural cosmetics.

It's really nice that the book is available in Russian too. I bought it and it shines my days , and I'm sure that it might be a fantastic present 🎁 for the Women's Day

Сиять всегда нам не запретит никто !

Yes, this book made sense to me !!

Hello, my friends!

Jazz was playing all the way I had been reading the book for 2 weeks , with pencil highlights and a high degree of self-awareness and self-care. It is the first time in my life since I've felt self-compassion and a deep connection with my TRUE self. It wasn't as though it was Terri Cole's book only , but many months of conscious inner work for getting to know myself better. It is hard. It is self- sabotage.But it is the only way to finally meet myself and charge life with happiness and joy.

https://litres.com/book/terri-cole/boundary-boss-71281888/


"Boundary Boss" by Terri Cole explores the essential role of boundaries in creating healthy relationships and fostering self-respect.
It provides practical strategies for establishing personal boundaries, emphasizing that effective communication is key to asserting one's needs and desires.
She draws on her experience as a psychotherapist to guide readers through the process of overcoming fears

💫 A legendary film for your Sunday evening 💫

" THE APARTMENT " Квартира (1960) by Billy Wilder , a genious film director!

The Apartment is a one of a kind comedy that never descends into cheap comedy or any sentimental manipulation. You’ll be engaged into the lives of Baxter,an ordinary accountant in the office jungles, and Fan,the girl he wants to get, all the way.

A classic ending that feels real and is pitched perfectly by a writer/director at the top of his game.

If you’re sick of clichéd love stories ,then watch this black and white movie.

📌5 Oscars
📌A mad box office success
📌Superb acting
📌Truly cleverly written scenario
📌Makes the outside chaotic world stop and sit still for a couple of hours )

The movie watching is the best therapist. I believe in it.

If you have any film suggestions, leave them in the comments 🙏

Have a soulful Sunday time with a quality cinema!

Love,
Yulia ❤️
