The situation of literature is worrying, it is a subject that I am passionate about, we are not clear about what will happen to letters in recent years, it is clear that more is being read, but what we are getting is the important thing, the financial situation of the world is in crisis, but the situation of the big publishers improved a little, since many people are reading in the comfort of their homes.
Hay una corriente medio extraña con la literatura en los últimos años, la literatura se vende bien, pero mucha literatura tiene fallos defensivos contra la ignorancia. Leer con muchas molestias, por saber que los clásicos están abandonados, tenemos que actuar con la determinación que nos dan los libros. Hay que hablar con argumentos, para poder conversar sobre un tema, sobre todo en materia de literatura, tenemos que pagar por la buena literatura hacer de nuestra biblioteca un éxito para nuestra cultura.
There is a strange middle current with literature in recent years, literature sells well, but much literature has defensive flaws against ignorance. Reading with a lot of annoyance, knowing that the classics are abandoned, we have to act with the determination that books give us. You have to speak with arguments, to be able to talk about a topic, especially in literature, we have to pay for good literature to make our library a success for our culture.
Un libro abierto es un cerebro que habla; cerrado un amigo que espera; olvidado, un alma que perdona; destruido, un corazón que llora. ...
Los libros son, entre mis consejeros, los que más me agradan, porque ni el temor ni la esperanza les impiden decirme lo que debo hacer.
An open book is a talking brain; closed a friend who waits; forgotten, a forgiving soul; destroyed, a heart that cries. ...
Books are, among my advisers, the ones that I like the most, because neither fear nor hope prevents them from telling me what to do.
