Sinossi
'La rabbia è un sentimento molto faticoso'.
Londra. L’eccentrico scrittore Owen Quine non si fa vedere da giorni. Non è la prima volta che scompare improvvisamente, ma non è mai stato via così tanto tempo e la moglie ha bisogno di ritrovarlo. Decide così di assumere l’investigatore privato Cormoran Strike per riportare a casa il marito. Ma appena Strike comincia a indagare, appare chiaro che dietro la scomparsa di Quine c’è molto di più di quanto sua moglie sospetti. Lo scrittore se n’è andato portando con sé il manoscritto del suo ultimo romanzo, pieno di ritratti al vetriolo di quasi tutte le persone che conosce, soprattutto di quelle che ruotano attorno al suo mestiere. Se venisse pubblicato, il libro di Quine rovinerebbe molte vite: perciò sono in tanti a voler mettere a tacere lo scrittore… Appassionante e ricco di colpi di scena, uno spaccato degli intrighi del mondo editoriale londinese, Il baco da seta è il secondo romanzo della serie che ha per protagonisti Cormoran Strike e la sua giovane e determinata assistente Robin Ellacott.

Wicked brilliant! ( Yes ;) Pun intended! ) HERE COMES CORMORAN & ROBIN AGAIN! If you are respectably active on the reading community, it will be no surprise that this "Robert Galbraith" is really the mega-famous writer J.K. Rowling, author of the ultra-mega-famous book series of Harry Potter .
J.K Rowling releases a novel under a pseudonym? Then announces that said novels sequel is already written and will be released in 2014 ?? This is how I imagine she looks right now. Edit Feb 2014: We have a name, release date AND a synopsis?!?! Bloody hell!
2.5 stars - Spoilers Disappointing, it wasn't awful but it wasn't good either. It was all rather predictable and generic, I wouldn't have minded the cliches and obviousness of it all if the main characters (Strike and Robin) had stood out in some way. Sadly, they didn't. I didn't care about either of Leggi tutto
"...Writers are a savage breed, Mr. Strike. If you want life-long friendship and selfless camaraderie, join the army and learn to kill. If you want a lifetime of temporary alliances with peers who will glory in your every failure, write novels." And just like that, J.K. Rowling under the pseudony
As much as I enjoyed the first Strike book this second venture was rather a let down. What we have in "The Silkworm" are alternating chapters of the main character lamenting about the pain he is suffering from his injured leg, and his assistant Robin suffering from angst about her relationship with

The Silkworm is the tenth J.K. Rowling novel I’ve read. I believe that after ten often gargantuan novels I can make fairly accurate generalizations about her writing. And it saddens me to say that she keeps making the same mistakes. Most glaring is her treatment of female characters. In the Cormoran Leggi tutto
