Ada`s way to talk
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 22 years ago
After I saw the video "The Piano" I wanted read the book. I was very fascinated by the story about Ada's life, or rather her way she started her new life. And the whole life without a word. In the video the features of the people are very important and I wondered how it would be in the book. The language is very poetic! The description of the characters and the surrounding is very exact. You think you can feel her feelings and see what she sees.
Love is beautiful and can be cruel
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 24 years ago
The piano is such a beautiful, artistic story of the woman whose will is so strong. Love is warm and kind, but at the same time, it is so destructive. Love is like the ocean that we draw from and jump into. This is a perfect novel for women who know the warmth of love; its hope, its faith, and how cruel it can be. I strongly recommed it!
Powerfull and Emotional
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 25 years ago
The Film and Novel are both very good. For those people who loved and lost someone, this story will most definitely be experienced as powerful and very emotional. The story of a bittered woman who has more or less given up on life. In time she finds a new meaning to her life. Finally letting go of the past, temp faith and start a new future. This is definitely one of the best stories I have read and seen !
Fantastic love story, with the same quality of the film.
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 26 years ago
A stunning film had a lot to live up to with the post-release novel, but it has done so amazingly. The Piano is a wonderful love story, so very erotic and full of passion, and in-depth enough to satisfy even the most serious reader.
