Share A Book at Lunchtime




At our 5th 'Share a Book at Lunchtime' it was the turn of Elif Tahmişçioğlu (Grade 12) to tell us why she was attracted to reading Banu Avar's books. An outspoken TV journalist, Banu Avar writes in particular for a younger audience.She has definite ideas about world politics and the forces of power/evil! I decided to read the book myself and was disappointed at the rather simplistic view of our world condition. When I stumbled upon an important information error I cast the book aside.Non-fiction writers surely have a responsibility to their readers and especially if their audience is the younger generation!
