If I could…

Ronit Banerjee, Class VIII C

If I ever had the chance to live a day as any other person, I’d without hesitation choose to be my favourite author, Dan Brown. Not just because I want to have as much wit as he does, to write endless, gripping and immensely thrilling novels, but also as he has the opportunity to travel around the world and admire some of the most illuminating historical landmarks and that in itself is more than satisfying.
Only the opportunity is not what matters, but also the ability to understand all of it. In a day, being him, I’ll probably go to Florence, Italy. Set in the lap of rich Italian Renaissance History and Literature, the city’s gravitas is just a treat.
But in all the beauty, it’s the haunting tale of Florence’s own aristocrat, Dante Alighieri, going through hell, heaven and purgatory, which attracts me the most. After some research about his book, ‘Divine Comedy’, I’ll go to the heavenly Saint Bapoli Gardens which will spark my imagination with its sobering effect on my mind as it is symmetrically aligned to the location fo the sun and the eclipse moon.
After such enlightenment, I would have enough material for my new novel. But, to pen down the chaos surrounding the horrendous Black Death, the predicament faced by the aesthetics of Dante, the uproar, the history fo the age of Michelangelo and Bernini, takes courage and creativity.
Dan Brown once said, “An artist’s life is royal, yet a tragedy,” showing his conflicts, which turn into beautiful pieces of art themselves. And thus, I’d like to partake in the life of this creative genius.
