As in any type of art also exist in science fiction catastrophic books that I call "without a reason." These are works that have come up to the publication, which despite good products from the point of view, from the point of view of style, or narrative, does not really involve the least. I think they are called the works "with no message." In any literary creation is something that the author implies, something that moved him to write and to which the superstructure of art is dedicated to stand out. They are the foundation of every good story. Maybe this is an explicit political message, for example in the novel " nothing on the Western Front" Erich Maria Remarque want to condemn the war. Or may be the key to something else. In the movie alien 2 the director wanted to talk about the woman in her role as mother. The film takes place at the time of the duel between the mother alien and the human mother, so there is an abstraction of femininity seen as a chance to conceive that crosses the boundaries of woman to reach those of a feminine top. The key is then the mother, who in addition to giving life becomes fierce in defending it, far exceeding in the male violence. In Frankenstein is the condemnation of a science out of control, defying God This foundation, which trivially call message can be just aesthetic, as in pleasure of D'Annunzio, a story fabricated to to enhance the rich style and excessive. Or they can be read the entire universe, as in Lord of the Rings, where Tolkien creates a new world, well-divided between absolute good and absolute evil. Of course I'm simplifying, but I think you only read with pleasure those who have something to say. In common
heard happens sometimes hear the phrase: " because each book must necessarily have a message? Why can not you just tell a story? ". It 'easy to answer: " because otherwise you get a book worth reading, a book that fascinates, or having no reason to interest."
The thing is quite evident today, where many successful works replicate indefinitely for commercial reasons. Some would say that Alien 2 would be the same without the beautiful duel between the mothers. But it is not true as demonstrated by the numerous copies, including comics, books and movies, alien, and the general public does not even know why, it just were not interesting. Currently
came to drop the filter between an author and the public. Apart from the Internet that allows anyone to write and read his stuff, a professional publishing houses have cut editors, those people paid for reading them and decide whether to publish them. You print a lot of things right without the filter, because the new editors are few, overworked or simply are not good readers and do not understand what makes a book good. They are based sometimes on formal aspects. In the next few reviews I want to talk about some of these books without a reason, good books, maybe insert new technologies such as bioengineering, biological warfare, hackers and network but not actually having anything to say, they end up saying nothing to the reader .
