Lyrics
Reasons
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
If in our time it is rare that
Undertake literary adventures so daring
Like those of Joyce, Virginia Woolf, Rilke or Borges
It's not just because of the encore writers
It is, too, because the culture in which we live
Immersed does not encourage, rather discourages, those
Hard efforts that culminate in works that
They demand of the reader an intellectual concentration almost as
Intense like the one that made them possible
If in our time it is rare that
Undertake literary adventures so daring
Like those of Joyce, Virginia Woolf, Rilke or Borges
It's not just because of the encore writers
Today's readers want easy books
Entertain them, and that demand exerts
A pressure that becomes a powerful incentive
For the creators
If in our time it is rare that
Undertake literary adventures so daring
Like those of Joyce, Virginia Woolf, Rilke or Borges
It's not just because of the encore writers
