Reading is one of the most important things in my life, it's a constant dialogue with the world. Books offer a new horizon when we are on the limit of our possibilities to make experiences on our own...
It's difficult to find a favorite author, one I can name out as my author. There are some who are more important than others, some have shaped parts of my life. One of those authors who influenced me lasting is R.M.Rilke, especially with his new poems and prose.
I can find for every situation a poem that helps me to go on or to rest, Rilke is balm for stressed souls and I recommand everyone to read him...
Others are Peter Handke, Franz Werfel and Milan Kundera. Kundera has on everyone other effects. One might be that you stop reading something else for a while. A friend of mine uses to call this phenomenon ?Kunderaism". Well, I survived it, and I can read other authors again. Anyway, if you decide to go to a bookstore and buy Kundera, then watch out for the early books, e.g. ?The book of the ridicilous love" or ?The book of loughter and forget".
To be continued...
