Several volunteers from the library Lasalle will "read aloud" the text of their choice at the retirement home and raises the question: what texts to choose?
Georges Petit, on the forum " Reading High voi x" gives us these few guidelines:
An exciting choice ... and not so easy.
Provides distraction, escape from everyday life,
resonates with listeners,
provides some "positive" comfort, philosophy, humor ...
Plait the reader.
What works well: (to me)
(a) Short texts good "story tellers"
(b) Extracts novels or stories about childhood, life in the "good old times ... "
(c) The storybooks different traditions ,
(d) Poetry: to "small dose .
What works less well and sometimes not at all:
The texts are too long (at least a good cut in the meeting or assembly )
Texts confused and stringy, too lengthy descriptions, too "intellectuals" too complex ...
