Sinossi

In "The Elusive Craft of Writing," Arnold Bennett delves deeply into the intricacies of the writing process, offering an astute analysis of literary technique and the nature of creativity. Bennett's prose is both engaging and instructional, blending practical advice with philosophical reflections on the art of writing. His work occupies a pivotal place in early 20th-century literature, a period characterized by experimentation and introspection, making it an essential read for both aspiring writers and seasoned authors seeking to refine their craft. The book is peppered with illustrative examples and candid insights that highlight the challenges and rewards inherent in the artistic journey. Arnold Bennett, a key figure in the English literary scene, was not only a novelist but also a critic and playwright, and his diverse experiences undoubtedly influenced his approach to writing. His own struggles and triumphs in the literary world inform much of the book'Äôs content, as Bennett provides practical guidance shaped by his lived experiences and keen observations. This background allows him to speak authentically about the writing process and its attendant difficulties, making the text both relatable and insightful. I highly recommend "The Elusive Craft of Writing" for anyone interested in the mechanics of storytelling and the philosophical underpinnings of writing. Bennett's timeless advice transcends his own era, offering valuable lessons for contemporary writers. This book serves as both a source of inspiration and a practical manual that encourages readers to embrace their own unique voices.

    The mythology of the Incas is a fascinating tapestry of gods, legends, and rituals that shaped the spiritual and cultural identity of one of the most powerful civilizations in the Americas. Unlike written traditions found in other ancient cultures, Incan mythology was passed down orally, with each generation preserving and refining the stories that explained the origins of the world, the forces of nature, and the role of human beings in the cosmos. These myths were deeply intertwined with the daily lives of the Inca people, influencing everything from their agricultural practices to their political structures.  
      
    At the heart of Incan mythology was a complex belief system that divided the universe into three realms: Hanan Pacha, the upper world of the gods; Kay Pacha, the earthly realm of humans; and Uku Pacha, the underworld where spirits and ancestors resided. These realms were connected by sacred mountains, rivers, and celestial bodies, all of which were considered divine. The gods of the Incan pantheon, led by Viracocha, the supreme creator, played a central role in shaping the world and maintaining balance within these realms. Inti, the sun god, was revered as the divine ancestor of the ruling class, while Pachamama, the earth goddess, was honored for providing sustenance and fertility.  
      
    Rituals and ceremonies were essential to maintaining harmony between the natural and supernatural worlds. The Inca performed elaborate festivals, such as Inti Raymi, the Festival of the Sun, to honor their deities and ensure the continuation of prosperity. Priests and oracles played a crucial role in interpreting the will of the gods, often conducting sacrifices—both animal and human—as acts of devotion and appeasement. Sacred sites, including Coricancha in Cusco and Machu Picchu, served as centers of worship where offerings were made to the gods.

    Jesse Ball has produced fourteen acclaimed works of deeply empathetic absurdism in poetry and fiction. Now, he offers listeners his first memoir, one that showcases his "humane curiosity" (James Wood) and invites the listener into a raw and personal account of love, grief, and memory. Inspired by the memoir Édouard Levé put to paper shortly before his death, Autoportrait is an extraordinarily frank and intimate work from one of America's most brilliant young authors. 
     
     
     
    The subtle power of Ball's voice conjures the richness of everyday life. In each chapter, half-remembered moments are woven together with the joys and triumphs—and the mistakes and humiliations, too—that somehow tell us who we are, why we are here. Held at the same height as tragic accounts of illness or death are moments of startling beauty, banality, or humor: "I wake in the morning, I sit, I walk long distances. If there is somewhere to swim, I may swim. If I have a bicycle, I will ride it, especially to meet someone. There is no more preparing for me to do, other than preparing for death, and I do that by laughing. Not laughing at death, of course. Laughing at myself." 
     
      
     
    An extraordinary memoir that reminds us what is possible, Autoportrait will leave you feeling utterly invigorated, inspired, and a little afraid.
