I've learned to admire not the glorious tales of fame or fotune, love and suffering, but the sentence and its structure, a single word and words en masse. <BR/><BR/>And I'd prefer much mundanne subjects over all things glorious anyway... <BR/><BR/>Yeah, translation sometimes can fuck things up, but not always. I've been in love with Borges, based on translations alone, and don't think paulo coelho would suck less in his own language anyway :)Barooqhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05292064238461334363noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-14166810.post-89029492105591365962008-10-07T02:56:00.000+06:002008-10-07T02:56:00.000+06:00// The emphasis is not on the sentence, but on the...// The emphasis is not on the sentence, but on the images he is trying to create, and too many words are wasted. Personally I like prose where words, each word matter and each sentence,//<BR/><BR/><BR/>u read im in translation.. though i aint big on marquez but delighting in the image is his forte ...but u know the beautiful thing abt his ppl is the possibility of loving multiple individuals and being honest with all of em... take 100 years of solitude ..the way he develops a character reveals his mastery of the craft...its more of an allegory than a literal saga of "love" surviving the corrosive affect of time ..i dun knw .. similarly doestoyvesy,turgenev,gogool or a tolstoy (i hate im ..neva finished ny of his books) are more abt the pangs of the perceived(?) persecution of the tsar or Bolshevik gulag or the inner hell ... i dun knw..<BR/><BR/><BR/>nyho real nice place u have here and what u said abt molly's yes made me smile :)<BR/>be smugraheelhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08135005772766448208noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-14166810.post-2066924119151768502008-10-06T23:29:00.000+06:002008-10-06T23:29:00.000+06:00I agree.To wait forever for love is stupid.I agree.<BR/><BR/>To wait forever for love is stupid.Majazhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12940659902381143803noreply@blogger.com
