"Unbooked" the revealing book by Tina Dharma that guides you to the hiding places of the inner pages that you did not dare to write, but you have lived May 30, 2022 – Posted in: Books – Tags: book
Immobile, busy, creative, imaginative, restless spirit and versatile. From such an explosive personality and inflammable character, you would therefore not expect a quiet, colorless odorless book like any other. Tina Dharma literally bursts into the publishing world with a book that is sure to be talked about and not go unnoticed.
Original self-help book? Creative writing manual? Essay on literacy and the art of reading-writing? A collection of wisdom and quotes about life and bookishness? Revolutionary dream diary? Or the conscious and practical realization of the famous saying: "if you don't find the book that satisfies you, sit down and write it" (in free rendering as you understand the well-known phrase here...)?
Forty self-contained stories about the meaning and interpretation of the word book and all that goes with it, from the time of Gutenberg to today's hi-tech applications and social networks, are looking for daring readers who will get their hands on the book that and they will read it or let the book read itself.
With fast, witty, self-referential and confessional writing, The Book will speak to the soul of those born from the phosphorescent '80s onwards, as its pages parade stories that all of us have experienced in one way or another. With the "book" as the central hero and not so much the book itself, The Book conspiratorially winks at you as you open it and the more you let it take you by the hand and guide you to familiar or unknown areas, the more it creates a feeling of tenderness exploration and discreet conversation.
Along with the author's voice, the reader recognizes his own voice and lets his personal experiences and thoughts converse with everything he reads on its pages, making the pages and hours of reading flow as beautifully as if he were going out for coffee with his best friend or with his neighbor from school.
With clever humor, The Book may not aim to entertain you but it will make you smile many times effortlessly. A book for restless readers who strike up a conversation with the heroes of the books they read and their authors. A book to pass the time but also a tribute to all the hours you have spent in the company of a book – with every book. The Book is full of references to books and authors, but it is not exclusively addressed to book nerds... On the contrary, it may also be addressed to those who are afraid to go into books or bookstores... and shows them the non-boring but adventurous side of books, which if they give in and come in they will see that there is definitely a book for them too. And even if it doesn't exist, by reading The Book they may be tempted to write the book that best expresses them...
The truth, however, is that reading The Book increases your appetite for reading even more and maybe even creates some "crazy" ideas for writing - what is certain is that it is a book that will not sit quietly on the shelf!
