Narrative Concering Books Utalentowana

A dazzling first novel about a math prodigy who is being groomed by her parents to attend Oxford at the age of fourteen, Gifted heralds the arrival of a remarkable new talent.

Numbers have filled Rumi Vashey’s world since she first learned to count. But it was on a trip to India at the age of eight that her mathematical powers acquired their almost supernatural significance.

At fourteen Rumi is firmly set on the path of a gifted child, speeding headlong towards Oxford University. As her father sees it, discipline is everything if the family is to have any hope of making its mark on its adoptive country. However, as Rumi gets older and the family’s stark isolation intensifies, numbers start to lose their magic for the young teenager: she abandons the rigid timetable of her afternoons and replaces equations with rampant spice abuse. As her longing for love and her parents’ will to succeed deepen so too does the rift between generations.

Gifted captures brilliantly the battle to come of age in an emotional and comic hinterland, where histories, arithmetic and cumin seeds all play a part. In a voice that is by turns very funny and fiercely acute Lalwani vividly brings to life a young family’s search for recognition and how that search can break a family apart. A story of high aspirations and deep desires, and of the sometime loneliness of childhood, Gifted is a remarkably passionate, assured and accessible debut.

Piece Containing Books Utalentowana
Had to think about this book for a while before writing my review. I am not sure if I liked the book but was intrigued by it. Would this have been the same book if Rumi was not from India? Did the author portray cultural life correctly that prides academics over a more " normal" childhood. Was she really gifted? I see many parents in my job and wonder are any of them pushing and cajoling their children this hard. So many teen have anxiety and depression today are parents or culture or both to

I think this is a good story. It was very well written. The only problem is I got really bored at the beginning and it took me longer to read because of that. However, I loved the ending and found the ending left closure.

The day before school started this year, my wife received an e-mail from a student enrolled in her English class. He wanted to know if he could narrow the margins of his summer homework by a quarter of an inch because his answers were running long.Such are the joys of teaching in the overachievement capital of the country. As the well-heeled and the big-brained dive back into schoolwork this month, I wish they (and especially their parents) would take a break to read this arresting new novel by

The book depicts the classic struggle of the Asian immigrants in their western dreamlands. The immigrant generation is happy to embrace a new, better life in the new world and relish in its comforts. This generation is very happy and also proud to fit in the society, until the next generation becomes an obvious factor.This is when,the immigrant generation - now responsible parents; want to have all of above without letting go of its roots far away in the home land. They desperately try to grab

It was a great eye opener to see life through a gifted child. I could not wait to finish the book. As a parent and school district employee, I was constantly questioning my tactics in making the kids do their work.

I read this book quickly but found myself thinly satisfied at the end. Rumi's character and internal life were flat and undeveloped; the author attempted but fell short of her target. I felt a detachment from all the characters. I felt I was reading descriptions instead of internal experiences of consciousness. In fact, it reminded me of a psychological case study rather than a story.[return][return]For a woman as sheltered as Rumi, the scenario with the Muslim college student rang false. She

Powerful, heartfelt tale of growing up and finding oneself. There are aspects of this book that didn't work for me but it's gripping storytelling won me over.
