I ...Thank you all for your interesting comments! ♥<br /><br />I will look for books written by Läckberg and Adler Olsen. Most of the episodes of the German Donna Leon adaptations have been seen in Finland and there was a beautiful Italian atmosphere in them. :)<br />Hey, I know Lucy Worsley! Her "Reins of Power: The Art of Horse Dancing" was shown on TV some days ago. Very interesting and well made. :)<br /><br />As to Donna Leon's books, the first one I read was "Death in a Strange Country". Even though there were some irritating things in it, I was hooked. I haven't read the latest, "Earthly Remains", but I will, because the environmental issues are a major theme in it.<br /><br />There's a very interesting interview in The Guardian (https://www.theguardian.com/books/2017/apr/15/donna-leon-interview-commissario-brunetti-earthly-remains) and the discussion in the comments section is perhaps even more interesting. There's some criticism - that I share - and there's also a (plausible) explanation for why Leon's books are so popular, despite their shortcomings. :)<br /><br />Finally: all these photos were taken in July. Only very few lupins are still blooming.Sara - Villa Emiliahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17402655388283396110noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9082774686797129874.post-78037989555744692282017-08-21T17:15:17.314+03:002017-08-21T17:15:17.314+03:00Kiitos kaikille mielenkiintoisista kommenteistanne...Kiitos kaikille mielenkiintoisista kommenteistanne! ♥<br />Dekkareista on tosiaan iloa kielenopiskeluun ja kielitaidon ylläpitoon.

I haven't read any books by Donna Leon yet, but I saw that most of her books had been published in Hungarian too, so maybe I will buy one... :-) Which one would you recommend to read first?<br />The pictures are very lovely. ♥ Are your lupins still that beautiful, or is this an older photo? I like that little book. :-)<br />Have a delightful week, dearest Sara!

Yritän ylläpitää jonkinlaista englanninhallintaa ja hyvä keino on lukea dekkareita englanniksi. Niissä uppoutuu seuraamaan juonta siinä määrin, että kieli rakentuu huomaamatta lauseiksi. Leonin tarinat ovat lisäksi loogisia, mutta silti yllätyksellisiä, joten niitä on nautinnollista lukea.<br />Mukavaa viikonvaihdetta!pirkko koverohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02709106995542996605noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9082774686797129874.post-63715430897909923602017-08-19T07:52:35.422+03:002017-08-19T07:52:35.422+03:00TV:ssä näytettiin yhteen aikaan noita Donna Leonen...TV:ssä näytettiin yhteen aikaan noita Donna Leonen Brunetteja saksalaisena sarjana. Italia-ihmisenä pidin siitä kun niissä seikkailtiin Veneziassa ja "oltiin italialaisia" eikä saksankielisyyskään haitannut, koska pidän saksan kielestäkin ❤️ Kiva että postasit tästä. Ja kiva että mainitsit tulevat takkatulet ja lukunautinnot. <br /><br />Kahviahvikuppisi sitruksen vihreä väri miellyttää. Se on yksi lempiväreistäni ja sattumalta juuri eilen ostin yhden sen värisen astian 💚 Nyt se on tiskikoneessa mutta päätyy varmaan lähiaikoina blogiini.<br /><br />Buon fine settimana !
