Visible Signs Of Cancer

Every time we read more

In Panama each time read more. People of all ages read more and more bus stops, in buses, taxis, waiting rooms, schools, universities, reading circles, radio, coffee shops, in parks, in our living room, bathroom or patio.

read everyday in the streets and in the newspapers, photographs, cartoons, lampoons, bestsellers, literature of which became fashionable and ... going, and transcending ... the c
Lasica Greek, European, Anglo, Asian and Latin American, stories and poetry. Thus we meet with our own being in metaphors of life and the lives of metaphors.

are many in Panama encourage reading habits directly or indirectly. Stand out in my memory the Linguistic Circle of the UP, Enrique Jaramillo Levi, Constance Thomas, Hector Miguel Collado, the National Library of Panama, the Panamanian Chamber of Books, INAC, Ricardo Arturo Ríos Torres and reading circles throughout the Republic, Emma Gómez de Blanco, Raúl Leis, Hena Zachrisson, Daniel Dominguez, APALEC, ASEP, House Workshop, Eduardo Soto, Carlos Fong, Briseis Bloise, Dagoberto Chung, David Robinson, Willo Cucufate, Carlos Wynter Melo ...

2005 is the Ibero-American Year of Reading. Every time we read further: to live, to grow, to transcend, to remember, to free to play ...

How To Make A Home Made Wood Stove

reader Rights

Paf! I close a book at any page, because it failed to catch my interest or meet my expectations. Other works are reread many times I feel that I have written myself and recommend it to everyone.

is precisely what happens to me "As a novel," the Moroccan author and professor of literature in France, Daniel Pennac. Done in a simple and infectious, and first published in French in 1992 and in Castilian in 1993 by Standard Publishing and Anagram, the scope of "Like a novel" is universal. Read why.

The English edition is pointed out that "This work proposes a simple task as necessary in our days: that the teenager lost the fear of reading, read for pleasure, to embark on a book like a personal adventure and freely chosen. " Meanwhile

Pennac says "In reality, there is a book of reflection on the reading, but an attempt at reconciliation with the book." That is why it exposes what I believe is the essence of content of its text, the "indefeasible rights of the reader": 1. The right not to read. 2. The right to skip pages. 3. The right not to finish a book. 4. The right to reread. 5. The right to read anything. 6. The right to bovarysme (textual transmitted disease) 7. The right to read anywhere. 8. The right to browse. 9. The right to read aloud. 10. The right to remain silent

I have nothing to add, for now. So I'll shut up and look for a book.

Todas Las Fotos De Denise Melani



front of our eyes are longer sentences and paragraphs. But in the brain that particles become centrifugal dance and jump and hide in concentric labyrinth, in the manner of naughty boys.

Those voices of expression ... we walk with them, we fall with them and continued our walk. Hurt and fall in love, cheat, charm, manipulate, excited, worn, worship, and clarify contradictory, insulted, tortured, confused, exalt. The words are written, say the paper holds ... We throw words. Sometimes we hit like lead balloons and other pickpocket in the air, because they become glass spheres as in the Thirty-First Monologue Creatures of the Air (1979) English philosopher and journalist Fernando Savater

"Always wanted to be a writer and now I know for sure that I am, better than some, worse than many, nor so great that the building is suffocating me become Angel battle with Universal, not even mediocre writing does not cause me legitimate pleasures. That's all that counts: children's projects have been met and I hasten to give with generosity ironic posthumous fame do not expect those who need that hope to compensate for their lack of immediate success. "

Words allow us to think we are creators. We provide the "multiplicity of beings''is in each one of us. We loved, you, you. We get word to transcend. And in this attempt we are alike, then we do not seem to disappear, but the words are always left.
