2011 autobiography

As anticipated, I resume the discussion on ideas for writing about 's autobiography . Currently, the phenomenon has lost much of its echo, it is possible to summarize the conclusions in this regard. Until recently, the noise deafened the ears of barrels of comic-dom: autobiography was the key word or rdine . It seemed it was not possible to say anything more significant than telling the facts own. As if by itself enough to confer the autobiographical component absolute value to the narrative. A misunderstanding of the principle value which gave foundation to the stories do not always memorable, unfortunately.
Of course, I confirm the assumption that in the story write about things I know and have lived is the best way to write something sincere and honest : while I think of the scope of comics stories Adrian Tomine - books like Sleepwalker and Other Stories, Summer Blonde and A slight imperfection - or Joe Matt - see the extraordinary Poor bastard - and comics Gipi, Paul Bacilieri or Marco Corona in which the autobiographical element becomes expansive engine of the story and sign for the decline experienced by individual experience to universal story. One thing much more difficult than simply autobiography understood as the end of the story and not a means.
Between 2007 and 2008 I wrote the screenplay for No memory - published in 2009.
sull'autobiografismo My first thoughts go back to that time when I tried to build and give more strength to my writing and begin to treat the matter autobiographical stories of families, personal experiences.
There must also be said that our lives do not always contain something so important to feed the story, however, remain convinced that writing about what you know and live is the best way to narratives honest and sincere. To avoid the risk of resorting to tricks and grimaces and find themselves in a story false and useless - as a reader and writer that I find quite boring.
