Call Me Chris Montez Chase

Double medal


Towards
while since I read a very interesting note on the "Read" and "reading habit" as I read in Sunday's Pagina/12. That day in which what was once customary , today is exception. And what was rebellion and protest , today is appearance. Also the worst change is that the ideology step to be Kirchnerism . It

the Colombian librarian Silvia Castrillón declared: " Reading is no longer a way of looking at reality. Previously it was believed more than the reality is told through the books. Now look at how reality is other means "

Then: Why read books? Here the redundancy is of great importance because it currently reads a lot but some books. "I read books " is more than a phrase characteristic of a naked brain as Karina Jelinek. Talk to read that support that was specifically designed, developed and work for that unique and comforting habit. Even today, a book is safer and more effective than a WiFi connection.

But more important than reading is writing. " talk a lot of reading and some writing and that's an ideological position. Reading is also production, creation, but is much more related to the consumption of books because there are economic interests linked to a sector of the market economy, which is the production of books. Furthermore, it promotes more reading than writing because writing is a form of emancipation also reading, but writing more. Give the word, to express themselves through writing, is a step beyond emancipation, is to have a freer thinking "

And here I get to fight the system that only seeks to read and not to write. Or at least, we are not encouraged to do so. I also get to fight with those who claim that the books are pristine, aesthetic harmony backs off shelves. Useless collection of information. The book is an object that is intended to interact with, that we touch, a ride, which we write. Abandon it and seek it. Estropiemos it and to fix it. Squeezed it get its essence ... read it.

What is reading, if not, deprive the book of his voice to be incorporated as ours.
