By choosing specific color and specific number of rose in a bouquet, you can convey certain feeling and message. But of course, by giving rose to the loved one, it simply means “I love you”. Again, by putting number on it then there will be specific meaning you want to show, even though it will be nothing to a person who does not aware about this thing. During their adventures in restaurants, temples, galleries, rivers, eating yummy foods, drinks, … while taking in the environmental beauty, …. That said, I loved the allusions and allegories, and the writing was fitting complemented the themes of the story. Le seul moment où un peu de "vrai" Japon est introduit, c'est avec le personnage du Japonais poète pochtron. Il parle comme un livre d'aphorismes zen, mais tous les personnages le font dans ce livre. Mais il est réel, tangible : il boit, ironise, il rigole en tapant des mains sur la table, s'endort en ronflant et pétant. Il fait subtilement allusion au type de comique un peu gras qu'aiment les Japonais (ce genre de personnage, on le retrouve dans les Drama/série tv japonais.e).

She has to face and come to terms with her own, so long unlived -- in any meaningful way -- life, and is given the opportunity to reach out and seize this second chance. Indeed, single red rose delivery might not be as impressive as a bouquet of red roses. Neither is it as extravagant, but one thing is sure: it would still mean a lot to a lady that loves the simple things of life and prefers to be the standout among other ladies. Perhaps the present popularity of single red roses is the reason why most men compare it to a dozen red roses. Whatever it is, however, you can be guaranteed that it is the perfect valentine gift to give to your loved one. By gifting a single rose to your other half, you are also making a romantic statement that will last in their hearts for years. Your gesture is pointing to her that you would rather shower her with experiences, instead of giving her Valentine's flowers that will get damaged in a short while. Perhaps you don't even have to wait until Valentine's day to make the romantic gesture and be in her good books. Jediná ruža je kniha o hľadaní domova, šťastia, o koreňoch, sebaspoznávaní, ale aj o smútku, láske a japonskej kultúre. Muriel Barbery na moje prekvapenie stavila tentoraz o niečo viac na romantiku ako na filozofovanie a aj tej irónie bolo pomenej. Kým S elegenciou ježka potešila človeka hľadajúceho hĺbku a jemný humor, Jediná ruža bude pre širšie publikum, uspokojí myslím aj čitateľky túžiace po príbehu lásky a jej estetika a pokoj dýchajúci z japonských reálií vás aj napriek ufrflanej hlavnej hrdinke naladí do pohody. Muriel Barbery miluje Japonsko, čo som cítila už v jej predchádzajúcej knihe, fascinuje ju tak veľmi, že sa tam s manželom dokonca usadili. Jej vášeň pre túto krajinu prebleskuje na každej strane. Whilst there she stays in her late father’s home and is looked after by his elderly housekeeper, his driver, and his assistant Paul, a widower with a young daughter. Paul has been left a list of places from Haru to take Rose who has never been to Japan before nor does she speak the language. The two visit temples and gardens, etc together and a bond begins to form between them.

If readers have read “The Elegance of the Hedgehog”…and loved its bittersweet story — there is a great chance, (although a completely different tale), the same mutual feelings will be felt again with kindred souls blossoming along side Cherry trees.

Lo que sí me ha parecido que está fielmente descrita es la gastronomía, esos sabores tan diferentes a los occidentales y ese estar en los restaurantes tan diferente también. I’m a big peonie fan…so I was in heaven … other plants mention our Japanese irises, lilacs, azaleas, camellia bushes, hollow bamboo, maple, etc. The hills are green and blue. The zen stones, tatami mats, rivers with herons along the banks give us a feeling of being transported to Japan ourselves. Esto no s�� lo que ha sido, fue como un huracán, que se me adentro completamente, que pedazo de lectura, que manera de relatar emociones, sentimientos, pasiones. Her father -- an art dealer, specializing in contemporary art -- was clearly a very sociable and warm man -- as even Rose must realize, given the devotion of those who knew him -- and she makes a nice stand-offish contrast to that. It's very difficult to dispute the fact that red roses are the most popular options when it comes to Valentine's day gifting. However, with trends changing daily, we've now seen cases where men and guys would instead opt for a more simplistic approach by presenting a single red rose to their ladies.Single red rose shows your long love and devotion. Red rose is kind of the stronger representation of deep love. Single white rose tells you the purity and the peace of love. It is also an innocent yet impeccable feeling. On the other hand, white rose also represents innocent childhood of a girl. Hace ya unos cuantos años, conocía a esta autora a través de La elegancia del erizo y me encantó. Tiene una forma de escribir delicada y poética. Cuando vi que tenía este nuevo título la verdad es que dudé porque tenía muy buenas reseñas y muy malas reseñas, pero aprovechando que salió como lectura en un grupo, me apunté para volver a reencontrarme con esa prosa tan bien escrita. Rose has just turned forty when she gets a call from a lawyer asking her to come to Kyoto for the reading of her estranged father's will. And so for the first time in her life she finds herself in Japan, where Paul, her father's assistant, is waiting to greet her. If Rose and her past start off as bleaker than what would pass muster in your average Lifetime or Hallmark made-for-TV-movie, Barbery ultimately finds her way to a conclusion that's entirely true to that genre. The amusing thing is that in-between the chapters are short stories, Japanese folk law that tells you tales that have subliminal messages, these I enjoyed and they kept me reading.
