Dieci

Mar 5th

Un’altra piccola “perla” che dipinge Napoli come e’.
Niente “romanzazioni” ne “stereotipizzazioni”: “Napule” cosi’ com’e’ per i Napoletani.

Tristemente Bello.
Bravo Andrej Longo.

I hope the Movie is better than the Book.

It’s not a “bad book” in absolute values: it’s bad because it doesn’t follow it’s own logic.
If you write the story of a man that, on the side of the age goes from Old to Young, and on the side of the body size goes from Small to Big… don’t screw everything because you need to close the book in a “strange but appealing way”.

I saw the trailer of the movie, and sounds like this is one of the rare case were the Movie is better than the Book.

Let’s see.

I just read “The Metamorphosis”. And I liked it… until I reached the last page of it.
Where I understood that Franz Kafka is an Idiot.

I like of course very much the quality and Franz is, out of any doubt, a great novelist… but I totally disagree with the message, the perspective and the conclusion of it.

P.S. I read it with the great Stanza for iPhone.
