O que é este blog?

Este blog trata basicamente de ideias, se possível inteligentes, para pessoas inteligentes. Ele também se ocupa de ideias aplicadas à política, em especial à política econômica. Ele constitui uma tentativa de manter um pensamento crítico e independente sobre livros, sobre questões culturais em geral, focando numa discussão bem informada sobre temas de relações internacionais e de política externa do Brasil.

Ler um livro por dia? Seria possivel? - Nina Sankovitch

Sim! 
Nina Sankovitch conseguiu, como descobri em seu livro Tolstoy and the Purple Chair
O livro existe em edição brasileira, para quem desejar comprar: O Ano da Leitura Mágica (tradução de Paulo Polzonoff; Editora Leya, 2011; R$ 34,90; mas se pode comprar um pouco mais barato em inglês, embora tenha a questão do frete, que acabaria equalizando).


Abaixo sua lista, que retirei de seu blog ReadAllDay.org

Estou sentindo um misto de inveja e admiração pelo que ela fez...¬¬

De onde ela tirou tempo para ler 1 por dia?!?! E mais, como ela evitou aquela sensação de ficar "decifrando" a história após a leitura??

Vou tentar um por semana em 2012 agora que vi esse post...mas se bem que essa vontade mais me parece uma promessa de ano novo do que um objetivo real :/

Paulo Roberto de Almeida disse...

De fato, é quase impossível, não apenas ler um livro por dia, durante 365 dias ininterruptamente, e ainda por cima fazer uma pequena resenha, crítica, inteligente, sobre cada um deles, inclusive postando nas datas certas em seu blog.
Realmente se trata de feito admirável e praticamente impossível para pessoas normais.
Só admito no caso de uma dedicação integral, exclusiva, absoluta, feita de leitura a cada hora do dia, todos os minutos, sem parar. Esforço hercúleo, por certo, obsessivo, certamente.
Seria preciso uma técnica de leitura rápida, mas de toda forma não fazer nada, durante todo o dia, para ler todos esses livros.
