Letter to the Editor On Mr. Stolyarov's Review of Noble Vision Gen LaGreca A Journal for Western Man-- Issue XXXIX-- August 13, 2005 |
|
Note: Several days ago, Mr. Stolyarov has received a pleasant surprise in his mailbox, a message from Gen LaGreca, the author of Noble Vision, a novel which Mr. Stolyarov has recently reviewed. Ms. LaGreca has given her permission to reprint her letter here, so that it might be shared with the readers of The Rational Argumentator. Dear
Mr. Stolyarov:
I want to tell you
how deeply I appreciate your insightful and beautifully
written review of my novel, NOBLE VISION. You thoughtfully and
clearly covered the plot, subplots, characters, conflicts, theme, and
broader implications. (Incidentally, a major message
I wanted to convey was the arbitrariness of the notion of a public
interest, which you captured perfectly in the passage
you sited.) Especially in light of the book's history
of rejections from scores of agents
and publishers, and the lack of interest of booksellers in
stocking it, I'm thrilled to receive the
recognition you've given me. I hope to publish more novels,
and your comments encourage me to do so. I see that your
review has been posted on various websites; please know
that I'm extremely grateful for the exposure.
Thank you for
taking the time to write your review. I will treasure it.
Best wishes to you
with your own writing endeavors,
Gen
Gen LaGreca
