The texts are all critical reviews (evaluative argumentative texts) about the book by R.Cotroneo “Tweet di un discorso amoroso”.

All of them are about his new book: it is about the new life of people on the social networks,  but first of all it is about a person that confide his intimal thoughts, reflection to the web, in particular to all person on twitter or Facebook. “The book is not a book”, it hasn’t got a plot but it is a series of association of thoughts, a kind of stream of consciousness organized into 76 tweet, fragments of thoughts, short and fast to read. They are sentences that now are lost, forgotten, in the web, a way to reflect about something and share with other people. “read the book is like sit down and look to a man who speaks alone” a man that represent us. He speaks about himself as sometimes everyone would like to do but has no time, is tired, has no desire to do and so he speaks for everyone.

The world of the social networks lies between reality and fiction, between interior time and real time. That world is constructed by quotations, simple emotion that comes out in a sentences frequently written in few words.

All this is very different from the dramatic monologue of the end of the 19th century and the beginning of the 20th. Not is contents but in structure. Poetry used a lot of lines, stanzas to express what now, everyone would like to say in a sentence. The individual, culturally superior, The Poet, has been replaced by anyone.

He wrote to say what was in its soul, all his inner emotion and his word comes out from a study, a comprehension of all the traditional literature from its origins. He quotes, he knows exactly what the quotation means. On the social network, instead, you find quotation taken from philosopher, writers, but does the people know what they means. Another significant difference: the quotation of the poets belongs, for example, speaking about Eliot, to Wagner, to the Holy Bible, to the traditional poets. Now, the quotation are taken from movies, popular songs, contemporary books.
