'Ovo su moje omiljene knjige iz 2019., mnoge su me usrećile'

Svatko od nas ima puno toga što ga okupira. Tu je poslovni i obiteljski život, ali i društvene i volonterske aktivnosti. Zato stvari poput književnosti i umjetnosti mogu poboljšati naš svakodnevni život, rekao je

Narednih nekoliko dana dijelit ću s vama godišnji popis favorita - knjige, filmove i glazbu. Ovo je za mene postala zabavna tradicija i nadam se da je tako i vama, napisao je bivši predsjednik SAD-a Barack Obama (58).

On već godinama preporučuje knjige, filmove i glazbu koju je tijekom protekle godine čitao, gledao i slušao, a koje su ga inspirirale.

Over the next few days, I’ll be sharing my annual list of favorites — books, films, and music — with all of you. This has become a fun little tradition for me, and I hope it is for you, too. Because while each of us has plenty that keeps us busy—work and family life, social and volunteer commitments—outlets like literature and art can enhance our day-to-day experiences. They’re the fabric that helps make up a life—the album that lifts us up after a long day, the dog-eared paperback we grab off the shelf to give to a friend, the movie that makes us think and feel in a new way, works that simply help us escape for a bit. To start, here are the books that made the last year a little brighter for me. Most of them came out in 2019, but a few were older ones that were new to me this year. I hope you enjoy them as much as I did.
