The curious success of the book "Destroy this diary" by Keri Smith

We all like original proposals and above all the "crazy" ideas that invite us to develop creativity, to unleash our imagination and to do things that a priori were unthinkable. More or less is what Keri Smith it is proposed that we do in his book "Smash this journal".

Personally, I don't think it took him a lot to gather ideas to fill in each of his pages since most of them are blank and they only tell you in a single sentence what you have to do about it. Some of them are of the type: "Make some sudden movement on this book", "Write the same word over and over again", "Paint something with your left hand", «Throw some liquid with your mouth on these pages», etc. They seem like the typical things a child would do when no one is watching.

So, we wonder, Why the curious success of this book?

Reading reviews, both from anonymous users and from people who are dedicated to Literary criticism, most of them reach the same conclusion: it greatly enhances creativity but sometimes it goes beyond absurdity. And it is that the fact that on a page it says "Stick your snot here" o "Stick a fluff" It is the least extravagant and gives something of grima.

But we assume that it will be like any other book, there will be creative people, extrovert, who likes to do different things that they will enjoy very much discovering each new day what they have to do in that diary. And there will be others, however, who find the most absurd the purpose of this book and think that with some cards, some sheets and getting crazy ideas from the internet you can make your own "Destroy this newspaper."

If you are one of the first, we inform you that you can purchase this book both on the website of Amazon, Fnac or Casa del Libro. The price varies very little between them.
