Who decides whether a writer is a genius or not? Thomas writes with his sincerity, soul, and blood. While arrogant and uncompromising, he looks forward to and fears the evaluation of the world. This is a process of self-release and self-torture. And all the fierceness is only carried out between the silent pen and paper, from the beginning of the word to the end of the word, as if nothing has happened, but everything has changed.
Max and Thomas were lucky to meet each other, and they were also lucky to be recognized by the world. Their success is inevitable. For a brilliant chatter to be recognized by discerning readers, he must have a skilled, cold-blooded editor who arranges his work in a way that can be understood and accepted by readers. Thomas is an unrestrained and invisible wind, but Max has a pair of skillful hands that can fix the appearance of the wind to the paper, and feel the strong wind blowing when the reader reads. Only Max's eyes that have been ravaged by manuscripts can grasp Thomas' main line, and only his ruthless pen can delete Thomas' self-righteous excess. Perhaps Thomas' best work is the uncensored first edition, but it's definitely not the one that will be most popular with readers.
They communicated on paper that touched the soul, captured the flash of inspiration in the silent and depressing life, and left the most appropriate expression left by them, which is prose, novel, poetry, the rhythm of the soul, and life. The rhythm is another game of two men. The result, of course, was pretty good.
Max and Thomas are still two big scumbags. They threw the burden of the family to their wives, and then they drink and have fun in the name of work, but if they don't, if they both go back to be three good men, they won't be able to produce such works. . What attracts the two wives is their spiritual light and free temperament, and family life will wear away the characteristics that attracted them in the first place, and the pain of retaining this characteristic to be alone in the boudoir, but without this pain, the impoverished life will be smooth. Shock is also a very scary thing. Marriage opened up the wife's heart, ploughed the ground with pain, planted the remnants of love, watered it with tears, and finally grew into a lush tree, and all the pain was calmed down.
Max was wearing a hat from start to finish, reviewing the manuscript with restraint. I think the hat is the editor's uniform, like a judge's robe, wearing a hat, he is not a reader, not a husband, not a father, just an editor, the purpose is to better present the work in front of the reader, so he can't let it go. Immerse yourself in the work because he bridges the gap between author and reader. Until the last letter from Thomas, he took off his hat and tears flowed for his lost friend.
At the beginning of the story, the ending has already been written. It is the brilliance of the spark, the pain after the splendor, and the eternal song that flows quietly on the tip of the pen.
