I am getting more and more
experienced about English day by day. One of the main reasons that I gained
lots of experiences in English is that i am very interested in English
Literature. Since my childhood I have heard and read a lot about English
Literature. As my sister graduated from The Deparment of English Language And
Literature she has told me a lot of interesting stories from English
Literature. And there are lots of books about English Literature on the shelves
of my little library. I read lots of books about english literature but
not the complete books but their shorter forms. I hope i will be able to read
and understand their complete versions.
The book I firstly impressed by was "The Black Cat" by Edgar Ellen Poe. With this story I started to be interested in horror stories. I started to memorize Edgar Ellen Poe's poems; Annbell Lee and The Raven. Then I read 3-4 books in the title of "Horror Stories". But I still love reading classic books more than popular books. And I cannot be unfair to my teacher from highschool, his name is Ömer TAŞLI. He is my favorite teacher ever (maybe after you:))! When I told him that it was hard for me to memorize words, he told me I should read some books. After he told me that, I started to read books and I began to be interested in reading books about English literature. When he noticed that we would like to read books, he started to make us responsible for some books of English Literature for our examinations. Thanks to his method of memorizing and understanding we read lots of books from English Literature and Popular Press. I would love to give examples of which and whose books I read. Firstly I should say that I love the method Emily Bronte used. There is a smart pass between past and future. I read Charles Dickens' books too. I read The adventures of Oliver Twist, A christmas Carol, A Tale Of Two Cities, Great Expectations, David Copperfield and perhaps one or two more that i cannot remember now. And one book that took my attention was The Picture Of Dorian Gray but i cannot remember its author right now. The picture acts and I think it is very interesting. It resembles the character's spirit. I would love to share all of them but i cannot remember exactly. I hope I was in my room and writing this text with touching on the covers of them. But there is no chance for it right now. It is a blame that i hardly remember the contents of the books I read. I hope one day I will read complete ones and remember forever.
I know that I will be able to gain more and more things about English Literature thanks to you. I will improve myself more and I will be able to read the complete books. :) Thank you for making time for reading my text. :)
