At first, I confess, I entered this from blogocosa blogomundo-in-a bit suspicious, expecting to find, what I know, a string of incoherent and masturbatory pages, a kind of giant chat in which all talking at once but nothing and no one understood. In no time, however, I had to change his mind. Then I
through several blogs that made me realize that this was serious. One of those posts was to Raúl Ariza, diffuse Soul.
blogs where I was going through was relatively rare, unusual experiences and very well told, reflections of a deep draft. Much better, in many cases, the official literature and traditional circuit. More lively, more dynamic, more alive ... There are books that go out in sepia already affected by the moth but just placed on the table novelties. On the treadmill the blog I found, however, bright fragments and stories throbbing, as if just plucked from the heart.
few weeks ago, several accounts of Raúl Ariza Blog, compiled by the editorial role polycarbonate, have gone on sale in bookstores under the title Elephantiasis. The title suggests abnormal beings, monstrous men, bearded ladies ... elephant or inside, however, instead of these things are common types in everyday situations, small daily tragedies, at most murder without premeditation. Could it be that the greater deformation of the things is the reality?
I always thought that writing about marginal rates, perverted people, mass murderers, to describe the low and criminal backgrounds, have coded gore, bizarre, apocalyptic, is gratefully acknowledged. Maybe you just need to imagine how overwhelmed. I always thought that the real challenge for a writer is from ordinary life, common facts, the common love, the monotony of the passage of time ... On entering life and concerns of a servant, saying, I think Flaubert. But I understand that is a personal taste.
That is why I was excited Ariza's book, as I am fascinated by the stories in his blog. Meeting on each page living, breathing men and women next to me, children, alone, kicking a ball against a wall, as I say small. Frightened people, bright people also do not trust just his luck, people walking down the street, some bound, others not. Authentic literature, as I understand.
A book, it's Elephantiasis, life from its beginning to the last page. And what is perhaps best: a book whose beat can be felt daily blog Raúl Ariza: Soul diffuse.
