Chapter Two of is probably the most confusing Chapter Two of a best-seller I’ve ever read. Yevgenia Nikolayevna Krasnova was a neuroscientist and an unpublished novelist with a track record of divorcing three philosopher husbands. She wrote with her heart and soul but in a fashion not appreciated by most contemporary publishers. Failing to convert her work to royalties, she ended up putting the entire manuscript online.
After five years, her lottery moment finally arrived when a small publisher noticed the value of her pieces and offered a deal. Yevgenia’s career unexpectedly rocketed and sold millions of copies her book, A Story of Recursion. Thanks to Yevgenia’s success, the small publishing house also expanded into a big corporation. The Chapter ceases. Yes, I get that this is an example of a Black Swan. However, I was very puzzled by the story with no sandwiched explanation or any bridging to the previous chapter.
Serving as a chapter, it really breaks the flow of the book. Is that how philosophers write books? The book is not a light read since it contains so many abstract concepts. After the peculiar insertion of Yevgenia’s story, I started to doubt whether this book is overrated. I feel that I’ve had a heavy dose of Taleb today. I need a break to digest. Why did Taleb Write about Yevgenia Krasnova?
Although reading the book is mentally demanding, I was very intrigued by the heartening story of Yevgenia. So I googled her. To my surprise, I didn’t find such a person. Instead, I found a lot of readers like me who looked for Yevgenia. The first Google result about Yevgenia led me to posted by a British man who apparently shared my daze.
However, I lost all patience with Taleb in a short chapter about an author he called Yevgenia Krasnova. He says it's called A Story Of Recursion. Thunderdome the final exam torrent download. I, Yevgenia Nikolayevna Krasnova, do exist, and I've even started a blog, here.
He questioned the Black Swan to be “the most annoying book in the world”. I didn’t read through the article since it was just as boring as mine. Whereas reading the comment section was much more fun. I realized that many commenters were like me who stopped reading at the end of Chapter Two and then started searching for Yevgenia. Suddenly, one commenter caught my eye: he asked us to read the first page of Chapter Three, just one more page after Chapter Two.
So I followed and reopened my book to page 26. The title of Chapter Three is equally confusing - the Speculator and the Prostitute. (Okay, whatever) As I read through not until the bottom did I find a small footnote saying “To those readers who Googled Yevgenia Krasnova, I am sorry to say that she is (officially) a fictional character”! A fake person!? I felt that I was drifting in boundless bewilderment. I just couldn’t process what was going on with this book. However, as I read the comment section, I realized an interesting phenomenon - most of the blog readers say that they arrived at this page because they Googled Yevgenia.
