Comment on Charles Bukowski – Roll The Dice by pamelablog

pamelablog — Fri, 28 Aug 2009 18:24:28 +0000

Hi Paul, in reply to your comment I add another poem written by Charles Bukowski, which comes to me after having opened one of his books by chance.

“The powers that be”

there was a crowd at this dinner.
they were all telling jokes of
one sort or another,
some of them were professional
actors, directors of note, writers,
and it gave me a little
tingle to be with such talented
humans.
there was a lull, finally,
and I began telling about something
that was not a joke.
about something that happened to me.
I mean, I wasn’t serious but at the
same time I was serious,
trying to explain what
had occured, about
something that might occur
unexpectedly in any man’s life,
something to be understood,
something to cherish.
I guess it was
a rather philosophical story
informed by decades of
my living life out.

then, I was finished.
there was silence.
nobody agreed or disagreed.
and then, at once, they all began
again
chatting about
little happenings,
the waiter appeared and
disappeared,
desserts and libations,
further in-jokes and out-jokes,
the candles flickered in their
glass enclosures,
eyes locked and unlocked,
lips opened,
mouths smiled, hands
gestured,
these were the talented minds that
informed our way,
these were the talented minds that
informed their way.
I was sitting with talented
shit.

Bye,
Pamela

Comment on Eva Illouz – saggio di sociologia by pamelablog

pamelablog — Wed, 03 Dec 2008 16:41:44 +0000

Marina, recensioni e saggi non pretendono di essere “giusti”. Cercano invece di esprimere, nel modo più articolato e argomentato possibile, il punto di vista e il sentire di chi li scrive. Il testo della Illouz ne è un esempio lampante e il mio breve scritto segue lo stesso principio.
Grazie per il tuo commento.
Pamela

penso che la tua critica al libro della Illouz sia ingiusta e non attenta alla sua analisi.
Lei non si schiera contro la psicologia, al contrario, ne esalta le doti di eccellente democratizzazione, ma ne criticizza l’uso a favore dello “sviluppo” della personalit capitalistica.
Proverei, se fossi in te, a rileggere meglio il libro.
Buona lettura,
marina.
