Sinossi
«Finalmente imbroccai il modo giusto di scrivere un’autobiografia – spiega Twain –: cominciate con nessun periodo particolare della vostra vita; errate liberamente attraverso la vostra vita; parlate solo di ciò che vi interessa al momento; lasciatelo cadere nel momento in cui il suo interesse minaccia di svanire e indirizzate il vostro discorso verso il nuovo più interessante argomento che nel frattempo vi si è insinuato nella mente. Inoltre fate in modo che la narrazione sia la combinazione di un diario e di un’autobiografia. In tal modo avrete il vivido presente a contrastare con le memorie di cose analoghe del passato; questa specie di contrasti ha un fascino proprio».

When it was good it was very very good but when it was bad it was boring af.
Mark Twain is a character, literally, invented and maintained by Samuel Clemens. Clemens effectively shared a life with Twain, or at least that’s my view, and the degree to which the identities were intertwined is incalculable but thorough. In writing (or dictating) this autobiography of Mark Twain, Leggi tutto
