Why not read the Dominicans? I think that because of the lousy educational system of our island, young people and children are not encouraged in interesting reading, but they see the readings assigned in the field of literature as boring and tedious imposition and is seeking a summary adjudication in " The corner of the vague "I think that teachers do not motivate it to students and the reading should be something personal choice after a range of recommendations and no one read by all in the course or this combined with the lack education at home have made those who do may have some interest in reading did not practice because they have not found the literary genre that kind of reading captivate them, all this is added the irrefutable fact that modern society has become Homo-Videns, this thesis is that man has lost interest in reading through the television and video games (and also internet junk [understood Messenger, Hi5, MySpace, Facebook and all that nonsense]) and that his brain has adapted to capture images and a festival of colors, shapes and show preset sounds like these and feel bored by having to read a book, a year in which the brain must be creating images while reading.
What book would you recommend to someone and why?
