Either by simple desire or by professional deformation, every writer ends up harboring his own ghosts, that kind of specters invisible to others and that offer sustenance for the ramblings, ideas and drafts of each new book.
And every writer, at a given moment ends up writing the essay that justifies why he writes. That has happened to Adolfo Garcia Ortega to present Writer's ghosts.
The essay ends up emerging from this synthesis of how and why to write. And in the case of the writer who delves into his craft, it ends up being an essay of the world, of what has been lived and of what may come. It is what there is, those in charge of fictionalizing so many stories are the ones who can best extract and / or project the ideas and emotions that move the human being on this planet.
And it often happens that, once reality has the capacity to overflow the glass of fiction, any theoretical explanation about the world ends up being filled with irony and an undeniable nostalgia for what has been lived and what has been learned, which in a frantic way seems to be relegated to what has been learned. inconsequential in a world that seems to spin faster and faster every day. Despite the fact that only the wise of learning and experience could harbor more deposits of certainty and critical thinking.
For all of us who resist this devastating inertia, that critical thinking always remains based on a particular compromised notion around controversial issues such as politics and its post-truth (also called: emotional lie, the summon of euphemisms), or other issues. much more rewarding like music. Although of course, what a writer is always wanting to tell in that one, his essay that gives a complete review to the world, where he rambles on the most social aspects, the characters that have awakened the spark towards change, the dangers of religions and doctrines, what the future may hold, the prospect of a society doomed to depend on technology.
Many references support the dissertations of this writer, composing a vast mosaic that ends up offering a diverse vision of who we are and what we can become.
