RE: Berjudi dengan nyawa (Ind-Esp) Apostando la vida

in Steem SEAyesterday (edited)

I am impressed to see that you know about the styles. I have read a lot of literature, mostly guided by some important exponents of literature in Cuba since my childhood. Then I sought out my own collection of authors. Each one perhaps unique in his style, or unattainable. I read a lot of psychological realism (Fyodor Dostoyevsky, Marcel Proust, French, In Search of Lost Time) Edgar Allan Poe, the father of the detective genre. The book, Rajatabla by Luis Brito. Rayuela by Julio Cortazar. The Shipyard by Juan Carlos Onetti. The list would be extensive. Carlos Fuentes Macias, Gabriel Garcia Marquez, Mario Vargas Llosa.
Animal Farm, the satirical short novel by British writer George Orwell. And of course Charles Bukowski, of the so-called dirty realism. All the characters were anti-heroes. The marginalized. The underdog. The displaced people.
People tend to consider that what a writer writes is part of his life. In my case I write from what I see, even in the news. Everything is fiction. Or in La mentira infinita, the characters were others.
I have published Entre el grito y El silencio (Short Stories, Cuba), El amor es un perro del infierno (Novel, Cuba and 2nd Edition, Bolivia) and Las Cruces y los Días (Short Stories, Cuba) after the loss of most of what I had written. I have recovered about eight unpublished books.

The structure of the platform is very different. Texts should and do work better if they can be read in one or two pages. Writing for a book is different in most cases.

PS: The list of writers I would like to mention is extensive and only talking about writers with significant contributions in their style. That I have had the pleasure of reading.
