bookshelves: fiksi-luar-terjemahan, punya, favorit

yep, setelah dibaca2 lagi dan dipikir2 lagi novel ini sebenarnya layak dapat 5 bintang..:-)

***
Dan malaikat pun..*
a.k.a. Fight Club


Dan setelah semuanya
segalanya sedang menuju kehancuran

9..
8..
7..

Lalu kau membaca Fight Club
dan seperti tersadarkan bahwa
dunia tak pernah seperti yang kaubayangkan
ada dunia lain di luar sana
dan di dalam sini
: gelap yang luput dari kata
gelap yang terlalu menyilaukan

kau bertarung hanya untuk bertarung
berduel dengan orang yang tak pernah kaukenal sebelumnya
: dirimu sendiri
bagaimana kau mengenal dirimu jika kau tak pernah bertarung?
ini bukan soal kalah-menang
pertarungan tak sebanding dengan kata
kau bertarung hanya untuk bertarung
tak ada yang selesai setelah bertarung
tapi juga tak ada lagi yang masih penting

Jika kau tak pernah bertarung
kau bertanya-tanya tentang luka
tentang dunia yang terlalu sempurna
keindahannya, kebusukannya
orang-orang yang serba tau segalanya
matilah dengan segala yang kautau**, katamu
matilah dengan segala kemungkinan
ini tentang mimpi yang tak pernah jadi nyata
gelap yang terlalu menyilaukan

Dan suara-suara yang kau dengar selalu berkata:
“jangan pernah mengharap mati tanpa bekas luka”

6..
5..
4..

Ya, kau tau, ini tentang penghancuran diri
Total. Jenderal. Sampai batas tak berbatas.
Infinity. Definitely.
mungkin kita harus menghancurkan segalanya
untuk menjadi lebih baik
dan tak seorang pun berhak menentukan
seperti apa 'menjadi lebih baik' itu

kau marah
kau berdarah
Ya, kau berdarah
tapi jangan pikirkan bahkan sekadar kata "sakit"
Tak ada yang peduli apakah kau hidup atau mati
tak ada bedanya
dan rasa itu menyenangkan
Bencana dan keberuntungan sama saja***

3..
2..
1..

Luka.
Bahagia.
Semuanya terlalu sempurna
tapi tak berarti apa-apa
tak pernah apa-apa
berujung segalanya

“I’ve met God across his long walnut desk with his diplomas hanging on the wall behind him, and God asks me, “Why?”
Why did I cause so much pain?
Didn’t I realize that each of us is a sacred, unique snowflake of special unique specialness?
Can’t I see how we’re all manifestations of love?
I look at God behind his desk, taking notes on a pad, but God’s got this all wrong.
We are not special.
We are not crap or trash, either.
We just are.
We just are, and what happens just happens.
And God says, “No, that’s not right.”
Yeah. Well. Whatever. You can’t teach God anything.”

Silvana kenapa ga 5 bintang?


Pandasurya err..kenapa yah? bingung jawabnyah..hihihi..
mungkin karna baca terjemahannya kali yah..meski terjemahannya cukup bagus kok menurut gw, pasti lumayan jungkir balik nerjemahinnya. dan ternyata cukup berhasil.
meski tetep lebih mantep bahasa aslinya, english.
klo bahasa aslinya bolehlah 5 bintang..hehe..

"You are not your job.
You are not how much you have in the bank.
You are not the contents of your wallet.
You are not your fucking Khakis.
You are not a beautiful and unique snowflake.
You are the all-singing, all-dancing crap of
the world."
~Tyler Durden~

message 11: by Pandasurya (last edited Aug 06, 2012 03:20pm) (new) - rated it 5 stars

Pandasurya kalo buku ini kyanya masih ada, meski di toko/lapak udah jarang liat juga, mulai langka
tapi pas pameran bulan lalu masih liat ada banyak di stand Jalasutra
dan beberapa kali emang liat buku ini ada di pameran

terkadang buku bagus emang harus kita sendiri yang nyari, bukan datang sendiri :)

lagi pula, begini katanya:

On a long enough timeline, the survival rate for everyone drops to zero.

Welcome to Fight Club.

The 1st rule of Fight Club is: you do not talk about Fight Club.
The 2nd rule of Fight Club is: you DO NOT talk about Fight Club!
3rd rule of Fight Club: if someone yells "stop!", goes limp, taps out, the fight is over.
4th rule: only two guys to a fight.
5th rule: one fight at a time, fellas.
6th rule: No shirts, no shoes.
7th rule: fights will go on as long as they have to.
And the 8th and final rule: if this is your first time at Fight Club, you have to fight.
