Dead Poets Society A novel

Es war stehts mein Wunsch einen Roman wie diesen zu finden, da ich mich sehr für Posie interessiere und dieses Buch mir so viel gibt – Schmerz, Einsamkeit, Hoffnung und vor allem Leidenschaft. In einer Gesellschaft in der das “Füreinander einstehen” immer kleiner geschrieben wird ist dieser Roman das Paradebeispiel dafür was passiert, wenn wir alle es einfach hinnehmen. Ungerechtigkeiten dürfen einfach geschehen und uns lässt alles emotional kalt. Dieses Buch hat einen gesonderten Platz in meinem Herzen eingenommen, schon aus dem Grund, dass dieser Lehrer seinen Schülern so viel mehr beigebracht hat über das Leben als jede andere erwachsene Figur in diesem Buch. Eine bemerkenswerte Mischung aus jugendlichem Leichtsinn, Poesie und Selbstzweifel – was kann man nicht an diesem Buch Lieben frage ich Sie?

The best novel I had to read in school! If you haven't read this one, please do so!!! It is a story about growing up, having to fulfill one's parents' expectations and even more. This is one of the rare cases where I also highly recommend watching the movie version of as Robin Williams portrays the teacher in such a emotional overwhelming way. Oh captain my captain!

The members of the Dead Poets Society find solace in poetry as they try to survive dreams, disappointment, love, friendship and the stresses of everyday school life. A comforting book with a tragic ending that does justice to the drama of a poet's life. Never before have I felt so connected to a character as I did to Neil Perry.

The group consists of the shy newcomer Todd Anderson, the most dynamic character in the book and film. Neil Perry, the model pupil who, against his parents' wishes, lives out his passion for acting and plays the role of Puck in Shakespeare's “A Midsummer Night's Dream”. And his friend Charlie Dalton alias ‘Nuwanda’ - the thief of hearts. Knox Overstreet - the romantic and Richard Cameron - the sceptic. ‘The Dead Poets‘ Club’ tells the story of boys growing up. They rebel against the restrictive traditions and values of 1950s society by simply meeting in secret and reading poetry - writing it themselves. By doing what they enjoy. They continue to develop. Find themselves? And yet it is also a story with a tragic ending. Touching and thought-provoking. A masterful coming of age film and literary work. With the marvellous Robin Williams as John Keating in the cast. My favourite book of all time.

The author has done a great job to write each character very differently from one another, each of them deliciously unique. The story, the poems, they have my whole heart, always and forever. Dreams are meant to be followed, art to be consumed. Love, love, love. That is what I take from this book. I can only recommend it!
