Reflection of Reading and Writing

   
Cover
            The writer was eleven years old and he wished to become a writer, that was one of his ambition dreams.  The boy lived in India and his father always read to him stories.  He participated in exhibition class of reading, he loved it very much and felt like if he was in a Cinema.  Unfortunetly, one day he had to move to the city, because his father got a job at the local paper and lost contact with the exhibition class.  But this did not break down his dream of becoming a writter and a good reader.  He was about twenty five years old, when he considered himself a writer and a good reader, but admitted his father was a much more better reader than him.

V.S Naipaul
              It is amazing the way the author describes to us this child and his story,  It is so perfectly described that you can imagine the places, trees, houses, people and city with her descriptions.   One of the things I found interesting was when the boy informs that the new place he went to live to was very noisy, I can compare that with tourists that visit our island. Most of the tourist love coming to Puerto Rico, because the opinion they have is that in our island the people are noisy, "fiesteros" and happy. This demostrates that when people want to suceed no noise or party can stop you.

  2. The title of 'puerto rican' comes with a territory, some might say. Now, it depends on us if we want to change what meaning does that word possess to each and everyone of us.
