Questo diario è il quarto libro scritto da me, una raccolta di venti composizioni che rappresentano il pensiero e le certezze della nostra epoca moderna. Racconti su un passato non molto lontano che potrebbe identificarsi nella realtà odierna, il presente non recensito giornalisticamente, persone che non hanno rappresentazioni comuni pubbliche, troppo impegnate in un certo senso a pensare quel che non hanno mai potuto fare, fino a ciò che gli è stato tolto per non intendere un bene o un male contemporaneo.

Relegated during her lifetime to the pulpy genre of mystery, Patricia Highsmith has emerged since her death in 1995 as one of “our greatest modernist writers” (Gore Vidal). Presented for the first time, this one-volume assemblage of her diaries and notebooks posthumously discovered behind Highsmith’s linens and culled from more than 8,000 pages by her devoted editor, Anna von Planta—traces the mesmerizing double-life of an artist who “[worked] like mad to be something”.

Questo diario è il terzo libro scritto da me, un’esplorazione degli ambienti cittadini ed extraurbani per osservare gli umani e gli oggetti moderni. Rappresentazioni in forma filosofica o matematica per riuscire a trovare la giusta quantità di moto, le prove che il bene è un più alto sentimento, senz’altro rispetto a un male, la giusta ripetizione di sempre le stesse cose per confermare, che qui non si può dire il falso e tanto meno realizzarlo.

Questo libro è il secondo manuale-racconto sulla vita contemporanea, e diario personale scritto da me. La vera gioia che il nostro tempo restituisce tramite le esperienze, non un ritrovato delle nuove tecnologie ma una funzione in diversi periodi storici e geologici, cosa lo ha già creato secondo delle spiegazioni, sugli avvenimenti e le loro soluzioni.

At the start of the 20th century, Rainer Maria Rilke wrote a series of letters to a young officer cadet, advising him on writing, love, sex, suffering, and the nature of advice itself. These profound and lyrical letters have since become hugely influential for generations of writers and artists of all kinds, including Lady Gaga and Patti Smith. With honesty, elegance, and a deep understanding of the loneliness that often comes with being an artist, Rilke's letters are an endless source of inspiration and comfort.

As a young man, Narendra Modi had got into the habit of writing a letter to the Mother Goddess, whom he addressed as jagat janani, every night before going to bed. The topics were varied: there were seething sorrows, fleeting joys, lingering memories. In Modi's writings there was the enthusiasm of a youngster and the passion to usher in change. But every few months, Modi would tear up the pages and consign them to a bonfire. The pages of one diary, dating back to 1986, survived, however.

"De Profundis" è una lunga lettera che Oscar Wilde scrisse al suo compagno Alfred Douglas nel 1897. Wilde era stato processato ed incarcerato per omosessualità e scrisse il "De Profundis" dalla sua cella. È una lettera intensamente personale che indaga le fasi del dolore e intreccia il tema religioso con quello dell'arte. Fu pubblicata nel 1905, cinque anni dopo la morte di Wilde, con il titolo latino "De Profundis" che si traduce in "dal profondo". Oscar Wilde (1854-1900) è stato un drammaturgo, romanziere, saggista e poeta irlandese.

Beginning in 1987, as she embarks on an affair that she knows will be all-consuming and ending in 1995 with the publication of The First Stone and the furore that followed it, Garner reveals the inner life of a woman in love and a great writer at work.
