The pelican brief / a time to killclaw The Pelican Brief merupakan novel JG pertama yang saya baca di dalam sejarah hidup saya Agak sedikit menghairankan saya kenapa novel ini diletakkan di hadapan A Time To Kill sedangkan novel yang kedua di dalam buku yang saya miliki ini merupakan novel pertama yang ditulis oleh JG. The pelican brief / time to killall Secara keseluruhannovel The Pelican Brief ini menghiburkan untuk dibaca Namunsaya beranggapan ideaplot dan jalan cerita novel ini tidaklah unik Saya boleh kategorikan biasa biasa sahaja Idea yang melibatkan watak utama menjadi pelarian mengelak diri dari ditangkap dan cuba mendedahkan kebenaran bukanlah sesuatu yang asing dan sering dipaparkan di kebanyakan novel novel thriller yang ditulis oleh penulis yang lain Jalan ceritanya juga agak mendatar dan bersifat expectable Novel inisaya fikirbukanlah novel terbaik yang ditulis oleh JG Namun demikiannovel ini masih menarik dan menghiburkan untuk dibaca Saya berikan 3 daripada 5 bintang untuk novel ini. The pelican brief / time to killall 2 A Time To KillAkibat perasaan marah yang membuak buakCarl Lee Hailey seorang lelaki berkulit hitam mengambil keputusan untuk membunuh dua orang lelaki kulit putih yang memperkosa anak perempuannyaTonya Hailey yang berumur 10 tahun AkibatnyaCarl Lee didakwa telah melakukan jenayah yang boleh membawa hukuman mati Walaupun tidak kurang orang yang bersimpati dengannya dan memahami tindakan berani yang dilakukannamunianya tidak semudah yang dijangkakan Pekan kecilClanton yang terletak di daerah FordMississippimasih wujud perasaan perkauman yang agak menebal Jika Carl Lee merupakan seorang berkulit putihmungkin dia akan mudah dibebaskan oleh para juri di mahkamah yang bersimpati Tambah memburukkan keadaankumpulan ekstremisKu Klux Klan turut mengancam sesiapa sahaja yang berusaha untuk membebaskan Carl Lee Hailey. The pelican brief / a time to killh book Bagaimanakah Jake Briganceyang merupakan peguam kepada Carl Lee mampu mencari jalan untuk mengatasi permasalahan ini Adakah dia mampu menyakinkan pihak juri bahawa Carl Lee Hailey tidak bersalah A Time To Kill merupakan novel yang terbaik di dalam buku ini Malahsetakat inisaya beranggapan novel ini merupakan novel terbaik yang pernah ditulis JG Idea utama novel ini sahaja sudah cukup membuatkan saya merasakan keunikan novel ini Apakah yang akan kita lakukan sekiranya kita berada di dalam situasi yang dialami Carl Lee Hailey Adakah kita juga akan mengambil tindakan drastik seperti yang dilakukannya atau hanya membiarkan undang undang melaksanakan peranannya Idea utama cerita di dalam novel ini sebenarnya berinspirasikan dari kisah sebenarberdasarkan sebuah kes mahkamah yang pernah disaksikan oleh JG sendiri CumaJG menambahkan persoalan apakah yang akan terjadi sekiranya seorang bapa kepada mangsa pemerkosaan membuat keputusan melaksanakan undang undang di tangannya sendiri vigilante. The pelican brief / a time to killknight Ibarat bukitbegitulah tempo atau rentak pace perjalanan cerita di dalam novel ini Permulaan novel agak mendatarkemudian menaik apabila tiba babak pembunuhan dua penjenayah oleh Carl Lee Seterusnyakembali mendatar apabila Jakepeguam Carl Lee berikhtiar dan berusaha mencari bukti untuk membuktikan Carl Lee tidak bersalah Sekali lagitempo jalan cerita kemnali menaik dan menjadi fast paced terutama di bahagian klimaks apabila Ku Klux Klan semakin berani mengancam nyawa Jake Brigance dan orang orang lain yang bersimpati dengan Carl Lee Pada tahap ini jugaproses perbicaraan berlangsung dan menjadi antara bahagian yang paling menarik untuk dibaca di dalam novel ini. The pelican brief / a time to killclaw Apa yang membuatkan novel ini menarik adalah pembangunan watak yang baik Terutamanya jika kita melihat pembangunan salah satu watak utamanyaJake Brigance Jake bukanlah seorang watak utama atau hero yang bersifat larger than life Dia juga memiliki sifat gelapnya yang tersendiri Begitu juga dengan watak watak yang lain Masing masing ada keistimewaannya yang tersendiri dan unik serta tidak tipikal pembangunan watak masing masing Dialognya juga amat menarik Malahada juga dialognya yang membuatkan saya tersenyum dan ketawa sendirianwalaupun sebenarnya novel ini sebuah novel legal thriller yang serius Dari segi bahasa Inggeris yang digunakanianya agak sedikit sukar difahami Tambahan pulawujud beberapa istilah undang undang wujud di dalamnya Malahanterdapat juga penggunaan beberapa dialek bahasa Inggeris yang sering digunakan di Mississippisalah satu negeri yang terletak di selatan Amerika Syarikat. The pelican brief / a time to killh book Saya berikan 5 daripada 5 bintang untuk A Time To KillSaya tidak menyesal membaca novel ini walaupun mengambil masa yang agak lama untuk menghabiskannya Pengalaman pertama kali saya membaca novel yang bergenrekan legal thriller dan ditulis oleh John Grisham juga tidak mengecewakan saya Sudah tentusaya akan terus mencari dan melengkapkan koleksi novel buku penulis hebat ini Hardcover THE PELICAN BRIEFOM This book kept my interest PAGE after PAGE. The pelican brief / a time to killclaw The story is different from normal storyline in most of the books found on the shelves It gets you reading again and again so that you won t have to set this aside for a bit. The pelican brief / a time to killclaw It s a one sit book you sit and read then you re finish voila of course with a taste of awesome satisfaction afterwards John Grisham truly writes legal mystery novels that will really keep your interest from the first page to the last This is one of my favorite books after The Street Lawyer A TIME TO KILL With murder the victim is gone and not forced to deal with what happened to her The family must deal with it but not the victim But rape is much worse The victim has a lifetime of coping trying to understand of asking questions and the worst part of knowing the rapist is still alive and may someday escape or be released Every hour of every day the victim thinks of the rape and asks herself a thousand questions She relives it step by step minute by minute and it hurts just as bad. The pelican brief / a time to killh book Perhaps the most horrible crime of all is the violent rape of a child A woman who is raped has a pretty good idea why it happened Some animal was filled with hatred anger and violence But a child A ten year old child Suppose you re a parent Imagine yourself trying to explain to your child why she was raped Imagine yourself trying to explain why she cannot bear children A Time to Kill John GrishamAn awesome book AS USUAL by John Grisham. The pelican brief / a time to killcat Oh I ve observed in Grisham s novels that it always have a happy ending in spite of the unmanageable trouble and difficulties each novel has from the start Well from my observation maybe because he thinks that no matter how corrupt and smelly our legal system or government is there will always be a way for JUSTICE JUSTICE WILL ALWAYS PREVAIL This was in my view one of Grisham s best Hardcover I did enjoy this one Good engaging thriller I appreciate how much research the author must have done it made me want to learn about the environmental issues he brings up as part of the story line DDT and its effects on animals and the environment and how this played out in a political way The author makes points without it feeling agenda heavy you are mostly invested in the characters and their survival Hardcover Marvellous compilation of two outstanding legal thrillers Recommended for everyone who admires Grishams work Hardcover
