Translation for "novel writing" to spanish
Translation examples
In my novel The Black Book, a character describes the work of newspaper columnists in terms that apply equally to the process of composing a novel: novel-writing, for me, is the art of talking about important things as if they were irrelevant, and about unimportant things as if they were relevant.
En mi novela El libro negro, un personaje describe el trabajo de los columnistas de periódico de un modo que también resulta válido para el proceso de composición de una novela: para mí, la escritura de una novela es el arte de hablar de cosas importantes como si fueran irrelevantes, y de cosas poco importantes como si fueran relevantes.
All I wanted to do was indicate that I was nevertheless well aware, incidentally, that we were living in a totalitarian state, and that had its own characteristics that it does no harm to think through if one is going to write a novel … indeed, that novel-writing will stall until one does think them through. All the more so, as it was precisely those characteristics that I wanted to write about, and right there one comes up against the first big question: Is that at all possible?
Sólo quería señalar que sabía, de paso, que vivíamos en un estado totalitario y que éste tenía unas características específicas sobre las que merecía la pena reflexionar cuando uno escribía una novela… Es más, sabía que la escritura de la novela se atascaría mientras no reflexionara sobre esas peculiaridades… Tanto más cuanto que quería escribir precisamente sobre esas peculiaridades, y allí enseguida se planteó la pregunta de si tal cosa es posible.
