should not be shocking to say that the tragedy of literary theory is that it does not read books. Just looking at the topographical shape. The theory is caused by premature ejaculation who need to give scientific status to work in a glance. Leo
Hugo Savino: I, for one, do not want anyone to teach me to read. That is learned in the primary. Leo alone. Many friends whom I respect read only.
I read: To say that you hear first must be able to listen, we must stop thinking that one is fascinating that we all have to listen, to write, you should know that a poem is not poetry, the novel is something of a genre, would have to accept that they are cantors of communication, disclosure dervishes.

an experience similar to a Russian formalist had with books. I did not burn to withstand the winter. Sold them to continue reading others. My economic instability always led me to commit this act. I lost all Henry Miller (notably absent in my books). Remembrance of those books the location of each paragraph that touched me or had coffee stains on some pages. Today, not having them, I can not reconstruct the history of my sensibility, which is outside of those marks, that is life. I can not repeat the mantra of Shlokvski: were young. I was reading
Cities of the Red Night by Burroughs and my father asks me because I had no book to read. Days later tells me that he forgot the book on the subway. Then I take from your library Murder on the Prado del Rey Vazquez Montalban. Pepe Carvalho was your favorite character. Copied and adapted the recipes that these police swarmed. I remember that for these readings using capers and coriander.
The European dream of my father was to see the La Rambla and Montalban Vazquez bring a box of wine. Some crop rewarded. So to close was his relationship with literature.
The book gave me what I lost in a collective line. A number relates to another says structuralism. The forgetfulness of a book is related to the loss of another. When I told my old man said, "looks like a revenge." And we laughed. I dared not tell structuralism because I was sorry about my error. Literary theory dies on the affection of those we read and we live in when we read. When we emerge from reading overlooks the world that sometimes seems unreal or vulgar.
Burroughs's novel could never recover.
In matters of lost books sometimes prefer to apply the law of retaliation.
