Descubre el método de 12 semanas que ha desbloqueado la creatividad de grandes artistas durante décadas: a Doechii, Scorsese, Alicia Keys, Natalia Lafourcade, Elizabeth Gilbert y otros muchos creadores les ha cambiado la vida.*EDICIÓN ESPECIAL DEL MÉTODO CLÁSICO CON UN NUEVO FORMATO* La mayoría de nosotros anhelamos ser más creativos y muchos creemos que conseguir serlo es imposible porque en realidad no lo somos. Este planteamiento es erróneo y lo único que provoca es que nuestra creatividad se quede dormida en nuestro interior junto a nuestra verdadera esencia. A menudo nos negamos el placer de soñar, de conseguir lo que siempre hemos deseado, de rechazar nuestros impulsos naturales, nuestra propia personalidad. El camino del artista es un método que nos enseña a crear con mayor libertad a través de la utilización consciente de una serie de herramientas que nos ayudarán a terminar con el bloqueo creativo. Su efecto es similar al yoga. La práctica constante de la escritura diaria -páginas matutinas-, los encuentros con el artista, el juego y una exhaustiva introspección guiada harán que modifiquemos nuestra conciencia y nos abramos a un nuevo horizonte imaginativo. Gracias a las enseñanzas de la reconocida escritora y artista Julia Cameron iniciaremos un camino creativo y espiritual que nos hará remontarnos a nuestra verdadera naturaleza. Al finalizar, seremos capaces de rehabilitar nuestra creatividad, de entregarnos a la imaginación y encontrar el sentido de nuestra existencia. Un recorrido revelador por nuestras inseguridades y nuestros miedos, pero también por nuestros recuerdos, nuestros objetivos y por lo mejor de nosotros mismos. Una obra necesaria para escritores, poetas, actores, pintores, músicos o para cualquierindividuo creativo. «La creatividad no tiene ni fondo ni techo aunque haya partes de su crecimiento que sean lentas. El ingrediente que se precisa es la fe -entendida como confianza férrea en uno mismo-. Este libro te muestra el camino y la fe necesarios para liberar la creatividad de las personas. Tómalo como un ejercicio para abrirte a una nueva perspectiva y libera al artista que llevas dentro». -Julia Cameron ENGLISH DESCRIPTION Discover the 12-week method that has unlocked the creativity of great artists for decades: it has changed the lives of Doechii, Scorsese, Alicia Keys, Natalia Lafourcade, Elizabeth Gilbert, and many other creators. SPECIAL EDITION OF THE CLASSIC METHOD WITH A NEW FORMAT Most of us long to be more creative and many believe that achieving it is impossible because we are not inherently creative. This approach is wrong and only causes our creativity to remain dormant within us along with our true essence. Often, we deny ourselves the pleasure of dreaming, of achieving what we have always desired, of rejecting our natural impulses, our own personality. The Artist's Way is a method that teaches us to create with greater freedom through the conscious use of a series of tools that will help us overcome creative blocks. Its effect is similar to yoga. The constant practice of daily writing - morning pages - artist dates, play, and thorough guided introspection will modify our consciousness and open us to a new imaginative horizon. Thanks to the teachings of renowned writer and artist Julia Cameron, we will embark on a creative and spiritual journey that will take us back to our true nature. By the end, we will be able to rehabilitate our creativity, surrender to imagination, and find the meaning of our existence. A revealing journey through our insecurities and fears, but also through our memories, our goals, and the best of ourselves. A necessary work for writers, poets, actors, painters, musicians, or any creative individual. "Creativity has neither bottom nor ceiling, although parts of its growth may be slow. The ingredient needed is faith - understood as a strong confidence in oneself. This book shows you the path and the faith necessary to free people's creativity. Take it as an exercise to open yourself to a new perspective and free the artist within you." - Julia Cameron

Make Sure You Read the Vintage Edition with the Afterword
I initially purchased this book to read for two reasons: First, it was written by William Styron, who wrote the great "Sophie's Choice;" and second, it won a Pulitzer Prize. It was only after I was into the book that I learned that this vintage sixties' book was the subject of a major controversy over the depiction of the title character, Nat Turner.
I learned that Styron openly acknowledged fictionalizing large portions of Turner's life, including his motivations for leading the slave revolt. I also learned that Styron's largely fictionalized portrait of Turner outraged many black leaders of the time. Rather than painting Turner (entirely) as a hero, called to action by the injustices of slavery, Styron created a darker picture of a man fixated on religion, a vision of himself as a prophet, and frustrated by lust and desire (particularly, for a young, blond haired white girl).
As I read the book, I search my own feelings, and felt that if I were black, I would certainly have objected similarly. We all need our heroes, who become much larger as symbols than they could ever be as people. For the sake of those that come after, such icons are perhaps entitled to be treated with a greater level of sensitivity and care--even at the cost of literary restraint.
It is here that the story gets fascinating. After I finished the novel, I read Styron's Afterword. Styron was truly stung by the criticism and in the Afterword, provided an elegant and persuasive defense of his writings. While I will not say that Styron entirely changed my position, he definitely made me see the other side of the argument. The dialogue between Styron and his critics not only allows the reader to consider one of the great social and political issues of our time, but permits the reader a unique insight into the thinking of a great writer--and suffices, in and of itself, as a reason for reading this novel. MAKE SURE YOUR VERSION OF THE NOVEL HAS THIS AFTERWORD.
Putting the issue aside as to the real "Nat Turner," the novel itself is beautifully written. The characters are fully developed and believable. The description of the system of slavery and the relationship between whites and blacks feel very real, and very accurate. Styron shows us good and bad of each race, and how all of them are bound by the system of slavery and their actions directly the product of it.

I loved this book.
I read this book for my book club and I thought it was beautifully written. It has stayed with me for weeks now. I love when a book does that. I'm glad I wasn't swayed by controversy. I had no problem with the fact that the author was white and using a black voice(maybe because I'm white - but I do like when an author gets the voice right and I thought Styron did that). I didn't understand the charges of racism after reading the book. Sometimes I wonder if, what some people find uncomfortable, they label as racist or sexist or whatever. Anyway, I would encourage everyone to read this book because it gave me a fresh awareness of a huge part of U.S. history, it reminded me that there are always gray areas to consider and it was a great novel. You might think so too.

Nat Turner was NOT happy
I think Mr Styron may have took some liberties with Nat Turner's "orientation" without the research or data to support his opinion.

A book for the ages...historically concise and horrific at once
William Styron, a gifted writer outdid himself with this book. His concise detail gives us an inside view on the depth of feeling employed by the subject of this book. The book while concise and tender pulls us in as these events take place. As Mailer delves deeper into the mind of Nat Turner, we cannot help but feel a sense of the suffering this man endured and this is what gives us perspective into this tragedy as it unfolds. A compelling masterpiece of literature.
