true stories , those that have a beginning and a tail, those that have a beginning, a middle and an end. This is obviously my personal idea of history, but I really can't read stories that don't fit into these canons. I don't believe that respecting this one rule of mine means limiting the writer's action, his imagination, his creativity.I did it my way here, I didn't follow the lead of the first post, because everyone has their own dramas . Some coincide, obviously, but I didn't recognize myself, for example, in all the dramas listed on Libreriamo. 1 – Read the back cover and not understand anything It's not easy to write a back cover .
It is also true that man Phone Number Data y types are read. There are those who insert so-called book blurbs , while those who try to make sense of that space and write a text that communicates nothing to the reader. I have to tell the truth: although it has only rarely happened that I have appreciated a back cover, it is the first thing in the book that I read . Then I open it and read the incipit and some internal passages. When purchasing a book, therefore, I proceed more by instinct, by intuition, because almost always reading the back cover doesn't make me understand anything about that book. 2 – Read the preface and discover the plot I 'm not interested in knowing the plot of a novel , but only in "knowing what it's about".
I know, put like that it seems to be the same thing, but in my head they are two different concepts. If I were to write the back cover of the novel Tom Sawyer , I would focus on the historical period, on the main characters and their problems, I would underline the adventurous character of the book, but I would not reveal details that the reader has to discover on his own. When I read a classic, I also like to read the preface, because it lets me know more about the book. The problem, though, is that the preface often tells you the story. To solve this problem I read it later, because it makes more sense. 3 – Becoming hydrophobic when asked “can you lend me that book?” By now I have refined a very careless character and I no longer have problems answering with a firm "no" to an absurd and inconceivable question like this.
