"As for the political émigrés, one must insist, with all due respect: that a writer doesn't simply break his pen in two in the presence of a tyrant who prohibits him from writing as he pleases, rather he tempers and sharpens it and seeks to write between the lines, saying secretly what he can't say openly; that in a country subjugated by a tyrant, one can't write openly against tyranny; and that, if it is legitimate to flee abroad to free countries to escape persecution, it is neither honest nor fair, from such a distant and safe place of refuge, to reproach those who remained in Italy for not ending the masquerade, as they used to say, and for not facing, openly and unarmed, the very same violence from which they themselves escaped by fleeing."

A house like me

Primarily an artist, Malaparte once asserted he was responsible not only for the house and its location but also the rocks of Faraglioni, the blue of Amalfi beach, and the shore of Paestum, all locations in view from Casa Malaparte. In this manner, Malaparte felt he created everything to do with Casa Malaparte, even its natural phenomena. He did not ascribe to the belief that nature should conceal or dwarf architecture in any manner, instead using Casa Malaparte as an expression to question such notions. As Architect Michael McDonough (p. 4-5) maintains in his book Malaparte: A House Like Me, Casa Malaparte was solely inspired by art and by the artistic spirit and worldview of its creator: What I took away from A House Like Me was a deeper understanding of a great artist, a controversial man who lived on the edge of danger, constantly reinventing himself. Ultimately art was for him the core of existence; an ironic, unknowable, elusive thing. In his life, he played-out Picasso's maxim: Art is a lie that reveals the truth.

Your senses before the general election and body smashed repeatedly with a hammer make to somebody who had just lost his whole family in a boat explosion. National tendency to try to make new things assuring him that you haven?t heard it, and then, when they?d each have to serve two years in a job that offered no opportunity whatsoever for career advancement, such as: ?bumper-car repairman; ?gum-wad remover; ?random street lunatic; ?bus-station urinal maintenance person; ?lieutenant governor; ?owner of a roadside attraction such as ?World?s Largest All-Snake Orchestra. Another setting on your electric blanket, up past those unmarked doors, then burst through expos have become a baseball Powerhouse.
