Review of the book "The Voice of the Monster" by Patrick Ness

This spring, the premiere of the dramatic film "The Voice of the Monster" took place. Unfortunately, she did not achieve the "hype" effect. The movie is such a unique kind of "encyclopedia of death" in video format. But let's start with the printed word that "it all started", the book of the same name by Patrick Ness, based on which the film was shot.

Preconceptions about yang-edaltu completely shatter high-quality stories like "The Voice of the Monster." Unlike the bulk of books in this genre (is it a genre?), Patrick Ness's story does not exploit "superficial" issues. Judging by the title, the book is sprinkled with fantastic glitter, but it should be noted that it is not the only one. History is also figuratively teeming with "demons."

A little bit about the plot: 13-year-old Conor loses his mother - she literally melts from cancer before his eyes. And in this depressed situation, he is forced to confront his "demons" and those who seem to sympathize with the poor orphan without five minutes. I almost forgot! And before Conor, a Monster comes every night.

These mysterious monsters turned out to be a thick tree outside the window - thousands Every night at exactly 00.07, a Monster comes to the guy, which destroys his world full of fantasies and pink unicorns; telling Conor tales without morality; which makes the teenager finally let off steam, because he has already "boiled over". It is the tree growing on the hill that protects the earth with its mighty branches, designed to save the guy. But Conor begs the tree to save his mother...

Death and selfishness are friends. Conor, without realizing it, is dying with his mother from selfishness, which does not give him the opportunity to admit to himself the inevitability of the future. Throughout history, he has never used the words "relapse" or (God forbid!) "Mom is dying." The verbal embodiment of thoughts about death in his understanding is something bloodthirsty that wants to consume him. But in fact, it is a courageous perception that will help to be reborn, save your life, if not your loved one.

Thousand, monosyllabic, not a moralizer. A very young Conor was expecting cautionary tales, with a sweet ending and harmonious architectonics. However, he received illogical stories promoting semitones, quite in the style of a young lady named Reality.

What's interesting: In mythology, a thousand is a genus of evergreen coniferous trees and shrubs that has lived for several centuries, therefore, in ancient times it symbolized immortality. It is a symbol of both death and resurrection. That's what happened: Conor was resurrected, reborn, accepted the truth, and while his mom was going on a long journey.

Nessus created a pretty strong metaphor. Indeed, the monster is not from the monster class. A monster is a primal fear of death and a broken pony world in the head of each of us.

I would call the book, which is small in terms of pages, an encyclopedia of death. And it must be marked "from 7 to ...", as on boxes from mainstream board games.
