Borrowing (half) quote of the story of Francis Scott Fitzgerald from which it was derived the same name, beautiful film by David Fincher, I wanted to put in places a small case of books (of my invention? O there 'of it?) that has enticed my curiosity.
There 's a book, of course, as the protagonist of my small yellow-mystery or almost Fletcher DanBrowniano that has formed in my mind unlikely investigative and THE GOSPEL ACCORDING TO BIFF. As you may have heard, I have read and loved or hated, or maybe there is completely unknown.
Maybe it's all just smoke and roast, and maybe reveals a nice hole in the water and Elliot to deny me on the spot, maybe it's collegiate Casuccio yellow condominium which should not attract much attention But to deserve a piece 'a bit' of salt from literary event (for a reason) and publishing (for other reasons) I think there 'and is embroidered on something tasty. Although it is not serious stuff, patience, too seriously you end up early to get tired. The book was released in 2008, edited by Elliot, a publishing house that Roman is actually one of my favorite publications, which seduced me as a reader to the point of sending me on the street to bring home their (beautiful) titles. But, perhaps, some small flaw on which to complain that they are concerned there '. A nice wink of ears it takes, I do not want that.
I state that I am not aware of the common editorial, printing and reprinting of Elliot editions of their programming and everything 'regarding logistics, so my attention is, more 'by the reader intrigued by talk of a lounge, a figment of my version crime novelist who occasionally comes out and indulges itself. Or maybe not.
often traveling far and wide across the Internet (various forums, aNobii, and the like), to libraries, chatting with booksellers, asking questions directly to the publisher concerned, which is precisely the Elliot, a spider, I dug the hole: the book by Christopher Moore has become a spectacular example editorial, is snapped up quickly, disappearing from the shelves of many libraries that despite repeatedly ordering it, served 1:00 to 2:00 months to take note of the fact that the stock of the publishing house it was lacking. Because, I suppose, a powerful word of mouth or a large space dedicated to him by various small-sites and blogs that deal with books and reviews that abound on the Web, has become almost a relic from the museum so that for a while ' of months now, THE GOSPEL ACCORDING TO BIFF may be all it takes to join the lineup of Chi l'ha visto?.
on aNobii, in various groups, have appeared in the form of topic-appeal continuous and insistent demands, to question whether or not to invoke the book and its reprint in the near future: people in the grip of a huge curiosity around Biff, you could have asked when the volume in your hands . Without any concrete response from Elliot. Yellow then convinced me to run some library, both in Milan and elsewhere, looking for evidence to verify it and to request availability of the book, the response from the leaked was committed more 'or less the same: "we ordered but still did not reach us," "other people have asked but there seems to be a ghost library "or" do not get more 'copies of the book for a long time. " As a kind of journey in stages, so I thought to address even as a last resort, directly to the publishing house that somehow she said, revealing that a reissue has never been produced, but which, hear hear we approach the last page where the mystery will be unveiled in the fall (and we entered a few days now) the volume will be reprinted in a new series, paperback and economic, the LIT, which will make its debut ever in the house Roman publisher.
On book, which as a vendor at the fish market, advising him scream out loud, we spend just a few words to focus on its nature: I do somersault enthusiasm in which the author reads from a point of reference , prestigious, which has documented and studied, sew in key interpretative novel a kind of new modern version of the object of the story. Especially if the reference point from which it draws its story is recycled especially attracted attention because of its delicate and charming.
Here, in THE GOSPEL ACCORDING TO BIFF, there 'the Gospel, there 'the Bible, there is' the theme at the heart of all religion, a sort of taboo' by never having to debunk, appears to be a mortal sin to talk about it in terms other than those of mystical solemnity . But, Moore manages to make this a sort of amusement park where traps are placed here and there irreverent, sightseeing and entertainment never experienced before. You roll out of bed, the couch, the chair of uncontrollable laughter and, more often, it spreads gently maybe in a secluded, intimate, to reflect and be touched. I know that the Church, more 'surly, whining, bigoted, moralistic (false) than ever, he is tickled that annoys, distorts the nose, perhaps intervene with the press usually cold and grumpy. But patience, there will a reason, because we do not accept attacks on those who preach the good hiding on a balcony malaffari sealed its key in a cupboard behind him. Read Moore, just released in the series of LIT Elliot, you do not know what you've been missing until now.
