Torturing the artist! Joey GOEBEL
Burn your houses, do you drop, fall sick become creative!
Of what unites the greatest artists, the suffering, whether physical or psychological, is a recurrence. It often creates to fill a gap, to express unhappiness, to win against time, against death. So why not give a small boost to fate by putting everything in place to ensure that an artist finds himself faced with many difficult situations, difficult to live and thereby enable it to achieve great things ? This is the challenge - debatable! - Is trying to win the New Renaissance. Toy a powerful industrial society of the spectacle, this secret organization intends to raise the level of mass culture by putting on the market for artists capable of creating powerful and popular works. To do this, open a new Renaissance Academy for the training of child prodigies. And so qu'Harlan met the young Vincent. Officially, Harlan was his manager but in reality it is mainly there to prevent him from becoming happy. And away from his family, killing his dog by setting fire to his house ... Sowing the pain to collect masterpieces ... The novel tells the story of Vincent in this career that others have decided for him. And it works: the more sad, disappointed by life and by others, it is more creative. Songs, screenplays, television series: everything he does eventually reach a wide audience and enhances the level of American culture is ridden with action films with big budgets and stars Latino buxom ( JLo, if you look at us ...). As you can imagine, the tone is somewhat offset by the author and great fun to play satirizes the entertainment industry, vain and immoral. A book light enough but sometimes, by the effects a little easier and, ultimately, from too much sentimentality, look at what he claimed to criticize.
