Don't be sad, Mimi. What about reading one short story before falling into the feathers? Due to my job for about twenty years I read novels only during holidays, but at least one short story every night. Which is why I have a considerable collection of short stories, preferably anthologies, so that I could get to know as many authors as possible.
Hi ha alguns narradors italians que m'agraden molt. Italo Cavino amb les seves ciutats invisibles em va enamorar. Erri de Luca, Alessandro Baricco, Paolo Cognetti, Stefano Benni, Umberto Eco i segur que m'oblido de molts...
Ah, Carme! Don't get me started. ;-)) Adding Antonioni, Giorgio Bassani, Gesualdo Buffalino, Gianni Celati, Luciano de Crescenzo, Fruttero & Lucentini (!), Luigi Malerba, Antonio Manetti, Elsa Morente, Alberto Moravia, Michela Murgia, Salvatore Niffoi, Goffredo Parise, Pasolini (!), Liaty Pisany, Ugo Riccarelli(!), Gianni Rodari, Leonardo Sciascia(!!), Italo Svevo (!!), Antonio Tabucchi (!!), Federico Tozzi ... and not to forget Andrea di Camilleri. ;-) Abraçades i petonets, Carme. ;-)
Hi Sean - you taught yourself well ... one short story a night and from an author, perhaps you hadn't encountered before ... I must learn from you (sometime) ... cheers Hilary
There are so many stories I'll never find time to read. It makes me sad.

Podries ser ben bé el llibreter del llibre que vaig llegir fa poc. Sense voler comparar, només per l'amor als llibres...
ReplyDeleteAferradetes, Sean.
Ah, tell me, Paula, what's the books title you have been reading.
DeleteAferradetes!
"El faro del unicornio" de Francisco Melero. ;-)
