Oltre al freddo e la prezzo della birra a colpire il Piero è stata la calda nostalgia di zio Ciro (così si chiama) dei temi-della-Germania-dell-Est e per i suoi frequenti viaggi “dall’altraparte”. Zio Ciro ha spiegato così le ragioni del suo rimpianto:</p> <blockquote> <p>Piero, lì si scopava. Lì le donne <em>(e gli uomini suppongo)</em> non avevano nulla con cui intrattenersi, nessuna pubblicità, nessun modo per generare e coltivare interesse per qualcosa. Il sesso era l’unica cosa legale che potesse distrarle <em>(o distrarli, suppongo sempre io)</em>.</p> </blockquote> <p>Seguendo il ragionamento di zio Ciro, se tutti i libri fossero come Lolita il genere umano si estinguerebbe, se tutto l’intrattenimento avesse la capacità che ha questo libro di lasciar abbandonare il lettore alle sue pagine non avremmo più ragione di cercare altro altrove.<br/><br/>In fine la mia teoria su <strong>Lolita</strong>: <strong>Lolita</strong> non è vera, la mia idea è che lo stesso racconto che Humbert Humbert fa della sua “ninfetta” e vicende che lo portano e riportano a lei sia una sua pura invenzione, un gioco mai dichiarato e sempre perfettamente riuscito di meta-narraizone. L’intrattenimento dentro l’intrattenimento.</p>http://yorekbirmingham.tumblr.com/post/44947840294http://yorekbirmingham.tumblr.com/post/44947840294Sat, 09 Mar 2013 17:56:04 +0100Adelphiletteratura americanazio ciro<img src="http://24.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_m5f8pi9iEp1r49q9to1_500.jpg"/><br/> <br/><img src="http://24.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_m5f8pi9iEp1r49q9to2_500.jpg"/><br/> <br/>http://yorekbirmingham.tumblr.com/post/25103798455http://yorekbirmingham.tumblr.com/post/25103798455Thu, 14 Jun 2012 20:49:39 +0200<img src="http://24.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_m2xvospiYk1qj5ncro1_500.png"/><br/><br/><p>assassin’s creed 4</p>http://yorekbirmingham.tumblr.com/post/21649404683http://yorekbirmingham.tumblr.com/post/21649404683Mon, 23 Apr 2012 17:43:40 +0200altairezio auditoreconnorbobby sixkillerassassin's creed 4<img src="http://25.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_m2cehftSHO1qh631lo1_500.jpg"/><br/><br/>http://yorekbirmingham.tumblr.com/post/21023980515http://yorekbirmingham.tumblr.com/post/21023980515Fri, 13 Apr 2012 16:21:03 +0200<img src="http://24.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_lm6s2cc0LN1qd8gt3o1_400.jpg"/><br/><br/><p><a class="tumblr_blog" href="http://eclipsed.tumblr.com/post/20854598995/best-wifi-ever">eclipsed</a>:</p> <blockquote> <p>best wifi ever?</p> </blockquote>http://yorekbirmingham.tumblr.com/post/20856259468http://yorekbirmingham.tumblr.com/post/20856259468Tue, 10 Apr 2012 21:59:23 +0200<img src="http://25.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_lzo5go9uvN1qfeqsqo1_500.jpg"/><br/><br/>http://yorekbirmingham.tumblr.com/post/20475263647http://yorekbirmingham.tumblr.com/post/20475263647Wed, 04 Apr 2012 20:07:07 +0200<p><a class="tumblr_blog" href="http://phonkmeister.com/post/19306222893">phonkmeister</a>:</p> <blockquote> <p>Se clicchi il logo Google nei servizi Google non ti porta più a Google.
