Use Both Cameras On E71




liteario
There is a subgenre that since the last twentieth century ited recovered a special boom: the autobiography.
Autobiographies passages give us light on the lives of the protagonists of important historical events or help us see the footprints on the path of thought known intellectuals. A clear example of both cases are the memoirs of Winston Churchill, former British Prime Minister who ruled during the Second World War and the scientist Albert Einstein.
But when he tells the story is a writer, the story is confused with fiction (in English there is a difference between 'history' and 'story' to distinguish reality from fiction). In this case I'm talking about the autobiography Speak, Memory 'by the prolific and renowned Russian author Vladimir Nabokov U.S. citizen . For those who do not conooce, he was the author of Lolita, liobro successfully made into a film by Stanley Kubrick. Navokov organized their reports in the form of micro stories with topics and obsessions that had in their lifetime prior to settle in America in 1941. Far from a simple ennumeraciĆ³n of fact, Nabokov gives hints of a lifestyle and a generation phagocytosed by the tragic events of history: the end of the nobility and the advent of the Russian Revolution. Relartat revels in the moral strength of his father and the beauty of his mother. story as magical moments his first steps in poetry, love, and his hobby of collecting butterflies.
the book, called "Speak, Memory 'is an excellent choice if you want to read something light but entertaining and educating on what is good writing, as Nabokov was one of the most prolific and most sublime of the twentieth century.
