-      <description>&lt;p&gt;&lt;em&gt;The Island of Missing Trees&lt;/em&gt; is a fiction novel written by Elif Shafak with action set mostly in London and Cyprus and taking course over several decades between 1970s and 2010s.&#xA;It is a book full of surprises and historical insights into that period of time, specifically the Greek-Turkish conflict over the Cyprus island.&#xA;The main premise of the book, in my opinion, sends a message about how the actions we take in life echo across generations, and what might seem unimportant to us now can be defining in the future of others.&#xA;Two main characters - Kostas and Dephne -  are from different parts of the island.&#xA;Kostas is Greek while Dephne is Turkish.&#xA;Both are deeply in love with each other during their teens, however arising conflict and tensions have a tragic impact on their relationship and families, which is what the book is mainly about.&lt;/p&gt;</description>

-      <description>&lt;p&gt;&lt;em&gt;All the Lovers in the Night&lt;/em&gt; is a book about a young, shy proofreader in her thirties.&#xA;Fuyuko Irie, who is an introverted shut-in, rarely interacts with other people and keeps things quiet and to herself.&#xA;As far as she can remember, all she ever did was work, get back home, somehow pass the hours before sleeping and go to work the next day.&#xA;A solitary existence, void of contact with other people.&#xA;This changes when a friend of hers, Kyoko, encourages her to quit her job and start working freelance.&#xA;Soon afterwards she meets Hijari, her contact person for new proofreading requests, and Mitsutsuko, a man in his fifties, with whom she starts to slowly overcome her anxieties and barriers.&lt;/p&gt;</description>

-      <description>&lt;p&gt;&lt;img src=&#34;http://localhost:1313/images/coders-at-work.jpg#floatright&#34; alt=&#34;coders-at-work&#34;&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&#xA;&lt;p&gt;Coders at Work is a book written by Peter Seibel, a programmer who decided to interview some of the most influential coders in the Computer Science field.&#xA;I think this book is a must read for anyone who wants to gain an in-depth view of what prompted the best programmers in the world to start tinkering with computers and code.&lt;/p&gt;&#xA;&lt;p&gt;To be frank each chapter read of this book has motivated me to immediately stop anything that I was doing and just get to coding, so it is definitely a good motivator to get into the Computer Science field.&#xA;Additionally, sometimes to new programmers it might be challenging and overwhelming to get to realize how much there is to learn and how advanced the people at the top are.&#xA;There is no doubt whatsoever that each person interviewed in this book is a world-renown coder, a master of their craft.&#xA;Nevertheless the interview format and the sometimes informal responses show that in the end they also started just like us from scratch, sometimes late in life.&#xA;Because of this, I think the message of the book is that anyone can program, regardless of when they start or what background they are from.&lt;/p&gt;</description>

-      <description>&lt;p&gt;Lolita is a very special book due to the sensitive subjects which it touches upon.&#xA;Masterfully written, it talks about taboo topics such as relationship abuse and obsession, and includes themes of murder, rape and pedophilia.&#xA;It has been widely regarded as a literary classic and masterpiece and included in some of the most prestigious book rankings in the world &lt;a href=&#34;https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lolita&#34;&gt;(see here)&lt;/a&gt;.&#xA;A colleague of mine told me that she could have not read on until the end, due to the books narrative.&#xA;After getting into a discussion with her, I have decided to give the book a try.&lt;/p&gt;</description>

-      <description>&lt;p&gt;&lt;em&gt;Klara and the Sun&lt;/em&gt; is a novel written by Kazuo Ishiguro.&#xA;Set in a far dystopian future, it tells a story about the relationship between Josie, a home schooled, genetically modified child and Klara, an artificial friend (AF) and companion to Josie.&#xA;It&amp;rsquo;s a remarkable tale that tries to answer some of the most important questions we often ask ourselves:&#xA;&lt;em&gt;What makes us human?&lt;/em&gt;, &lt;em&gt;What does it mean to be human?&lt;/em&gt;&#xA;We encounter multiple themes throughout the book, but there are two which I would like to write about.&lt;/p&gt;</description>
