I never liked things most of the people like. Say for instance, there's that super awesome movie coming on the screens next month, and that's it- people are getting crazy and obsessed with reading books (reading is always good intention, but reading everything they offer you to read, these junk readings... I don't even know which one is worst for the brain), waiting for first releases, watching exciting trailers...

It is not the cinema thing... Now I am thinking why am I so skeptical about cinema art itself? Vladimir Il'ich Lenin was saying that 'cinema is the art for masses'. Couldn't agree more. 

So it is not the movie thing, it is 'people intellectually eating everything they offer today' thing. I was always wondering, what do people find in all these super 'thougtful' quotes from Paolo Cohelio (not sure if I wrote the name correctly, but I don't think what he is doing is worth my time on googling his name), Garcia Markez, Dan Browns, if we talk about russians, Daria Doncovas, Boris Akunin and many many others... Actually ,Akunin is quite readible cause of the language he was trying to copy from old- old- ooold Russian classics.

Cohelio must be responsible for what he is doing with minds of nowaday's femine readers :) Quoting this stupidness must be prosecuted by the law. I mean seriously, this is way too much, how come someone says obvious, silly things, and others start quoting him, as if THIS is the truth in its last instance :)))

Junk reading is something you read lying on the beach, and the next very day you forget it, it shouldn't be memorized, and ...dear Lord, it shouldn't be spread across people!!!! 

Ok so... what I wanted to say is that I've read one of the books that ,I think, will be one of the bestselling books this year. Oh well, yes, I've became a victim of marketing and advertising. During my Italian vacation, in Milano, I've seen the tram with adv of Dan Brown's book on it, which is called Inferno. To tell you the truth, it is such a thoughtful marketing trick :) Cause first thing that comes into your mind is Dante Alighieri's 'The Divine Comedy'. And then I went to local Feltrinelly and bought the book. Very easily readable, easy forgettable junk reading, and leaving taste of little disappointment after you're done, cause book didn't overcome your expectations... I never read non of his books, I figured he wrote about 10 or even more, and that each single book is like bestseller or something like that... So that was my first ever Dan Brown experience.

What I liked about it -is Florence, of course. By all means, I totally share author's love towards this absolutely astonishingly beautiful citta. Hall of five hundred, Ponte Vecchio, towers, Art galleries, super unrealistic adventures in this marvelous city. All of the memories, good ones, were taken on the surface from the deep down inside of my memory storage :) Then there was a little bit of Venice and Istanbul, but they were mentioned so very briefly, so you don't even have time to remember what was Robert Langdon doing there :) 

This book is such a speculation, it is that particular book's second name actually 'SPECULATION on readers' feelings' :) 

What I wanted to say is that... don't read everything, be picky, don't watch everything they show you, be picky, listen to something that is really beautiful, not just popular, otherwise you might end up by being just another brick of this huge and unending wall of global informational consumerism. 

ps: Gianny Radari was writing for children by the way, not for super mature adults...
