Öteki Pusula - Sanat ve Edebiyat Üzerine Denemeler 4-Ciltli

If a person finds himself stranded on a deserted island, his first job is to look for a way to save his life; He cannot think of reading or writing. If the blind person is not ignorant, he will immediately think of Robinson Crusoe and try to remember what he did. There is actually no better way to understand how you read books and how much you digest! Now you can "pretend" to understand that you cannot remember a lot of crucial details because you have read them cursorily. Moreover, "lighting a fire" is not only the title of a book by Jack London, but it will also prove to you how far away you are from "living practice".

Let's say you managed to survive and start a fire. When you are fit enough to hold a pen and paper, you will see that the topics you wanted to write about in the past have evaporated, and you will most likely try to get into your own Robinson situation. There you will encounter the main question, this time in a completely different guise: You are on a deserted island, you have no potential readers anymore, do you feel the need to write despite everything?

You will weigh on that bridge whether you are actually a writer or not.
