RE: ADSactly Literature - Reading Suggestions for the New Year

in #literature6 years ago

Hello, @honeydue. Happy New Year! A very appropriate post for this start of the year. Reading is perhaps the main activity of my life. I assume what the great Argentine and universal writer Jorge Luis Borges once said: "Let others boast about the pages they have written, I am proud of the pages I have read". I agree with you on the need to diversify reading, so I combine reading classics from different languages (translated into Spanish) and literary genres, with that of modern and current authors. What I read most is poetry, but also narrative (novel or stories), philosophy and theory (literary, cultural, etc.). Thanks for your pleasant article, as well as @adsactly. Greetings.

Thanks, I am happy you liked it! sounds like you read a lot, which is excellent :) Yes, Borges surely was unto something there. You can't be a writer without being a reader first.
