Last year, a British man named Sheridan Simove became a world-famous "writer" because of his book "What every man thinks about apart from sex". However, the most curious thing of all this succes is that this novel is simply a blank book. It became really popular between young people, who use it as a bloc, althought this wasn't the purpose it was written for.
The author explained that this book is the result of a thorough study of this topic made thirty nine years ago, but when he was about to start writing, his mind went blank, which led him to several conclusions. After this, he claimed that everybody should know this discovery.
Simove doesn't know if this success is hilarious or depressive, as he wrote a real book which never was as successful as this one. Nevertheless, he's going to insiste on publishing more blank books. His next one is going to be about the reasons for trusting politicians, and afterwards, a real book about how the society thinks of failure and how it stops people to make come true their dreams.
Simove suggests that we should have in mind the state of society nowadays thanks to his books, and he urges us to do something to change it.
