I have always wondered what make some books really popular while other books tend to just fizzle out and never really get much acclaim. Why do books like The Da Vinci Code go to the top of the New York Times bestseller list while others like Literature, Criticism and Theory never even come close to achieving the audience of the former? This quote seems to sum that up. While providing some really interesting topics for people interested in the study of English literature, the extent of the audience, or people interested in what the book is telling, is not nearly as large as hordes of people who line up to find conspiracy theories in things ranging from monumental buildings to blades of grass. The popular success of a work really depends on the authors ability to connect with as many readers as possible.
The way the book talks about the relationship between the reader and the author, or as the book says, the readers projection of the author, kind of ties in with the concept of layers in the reading that the previous section in the book was talking about. There is the actual author of the text, but the reader only ever gets to know his concept of the author through the reading – another level of separation from reader to author. I think that this is a really interesting aspect to consider in the readers interpretation of the events and characters in the novel.
I was struck by the line on page 21 about the language controlling the author as much as the author controls the language. I have had my own personal experiences with writing short fiction stories in a class last term. At first, I had a fairly clear plan of what my story was going to say and how I was going to do that, but sometime during the writing process, my story kind of ran away with me off on its own direction. I wasnt getting very far trying to take control of the story again, so I ultimately let the story take over as weird as that sounds. Once I was done, I read through the completed story and, to my surprise, it came across as something that I would like to have read much more than what I had actually been planning on writing. I dont know if this is what the Bennett and Royle had in mind when writing that particular part, but it seemed to speak loud and clearly
I didn’t find the idea of language-neutral writing unusual or bad in the story. It was rather surprising to anyone who read Bennett and Royle. As I remember them, I think they were just like the first generation (and, I guess, the middle) of the writer. As such, we have a rather peculiar language, and it is hard to know how to use it. When I read their story, I thought it to be a bit like the idea of “songs I’ve done in school and in class that I think will still be useful.” They put me on the road for a year to write a series of poems, as all of the other young writers at that time. Once it was over, they had me back, so I was able to enjoy my time writing stories, but I felt my story had become too confusing and not the kind of story you would find in a work of fiction. While it is true that they might disagree, the way they approached writing seemed to me like it had been created as a way to explain to readers their own experiences. They had written a story at least in their heads about the various difficulties or frustrations they found with writing, some of which included: 1. Being unfamiliar with English. To most students that means reading aloud as I try and understand how a person reads it. 2. Having to keep the line for one word in a line to read into something that should be explained. 3. Conversation with unfamiliar people. I had been meaning to think about the idea of the language having this impact, and the idea seemed to strike a chord with me. I read the story three or four times, and it came across as a bit like reading a poem… and I thought of reading a poem about your school’s school and how it’s changing. I also went through a lot of thinking about the story, and the whole poem was an interesting twist in the way I could relate to it. 4. Sticking yourself out of the story. The story seemed to be a way to explain something from one point of view to the next: 2. Confusion when it comes to writing. You can sort yourself out from that confusion and confusion with the stories in the story. You can see that they are moving from you to you, that you aren’t writing a line, and they are moving from the one you are writing to the others. And then, you can feel that at that point they have a choice between either you or them. However, you have to come through that through your understanding of the story and how it is actually telling. 5. Being involved in conversation with strangers. It just doesn’t seem right. I thought about it a lot last year. My goal was to be as good at telling a story as possible, but all through my writing there was a sense that having lived in a culture where others can learn from you and learn from you, we didn’t really work out how to share the same story. But this feeling, that we would
