Reseña del libro "Osmosis: Essays (en Inglés)"

This book of essays is about ideas that occur on a daily basis for us all. Most times the unconscious thoughts we associate with trying to understand what things mean get lost in translation. In our modern world we address these thoughts using text messaging or a quick email message, tweets and other forms of instantaneous communication. The first inclination that these thoughts could be made in to logical sentences as far as I can tell is credited to Beat Generation author Jack Kerouac. He formulated his novels by using something he labeled simultaneous writing. By allowing the flow of ideas to mix with the act of writing offers the writer a means of communicating with his/her subconscious while allowing others to comprehend what he / she is thinking. Modern communication has gone through many changes in a very short period of time. In an essay entitled Letters, the history of letter writing dates back to 500BC when it is reported Persian Queen Atossa advising her husband about the birth of his first child. This means of communication advanced throughout time until the late 20th century with the advent of the Internet. Since the birth of the Internet as we know it today letters have become the practice of very few. Messages sent through social media sites are limited by the actual application itself (Tweet = 140 characters) or by what many consider to be our diminished attention span for reading. The title of this compilation of essays fits in to the current definition of how we assume what is meant by reading abbreviated text on our phones and computer devices. We have in essence become an Osmosis society.
