ENGLISH DESCRIPTION

A thrilling, personal memoir of the cultural world over the last decades. By the winner of the Canarias Literary Prize, Benito P rez Armas Prize, Azor n Novel Prize, and National Cultural Journalism Prize.

"Among the broken glass of my memory, there are sparks--stars with which I sometimes illuminate or alleviate disasters and other goodbyes. And frequently, some people turn to it, of their own account, and settle in there."

"The substance that my memory is made of is my way of seeing reality," said Juan Cruz Ruiz, a bridging figure between various generations of writers, artists, editors, and journalists. From his experiences alongside some of the primary protagonists of contemporary culture, full of anecdotes, unique moments that solidified friendships, in each chapter of this book the author offers a profile of one of them, which delves into their personality and their soul, instants in their lives, and their feelings.

G nter Grass, Patti Smith, Jos Saramago, Dulce Chac n, Jos Manuel Caballero Bonald, J. K. Rowling, Carlos Fuentes, Carmen Balcells, Mario Vargaas Llosa, Leonard Cohen, Gabriel Garc a M rquez, Ingmar Bergman... the literature, music, film, and art that emanate from this book break borders and cross decades to offer us a brilliant, evocative tale about the cultural world of the last fifty years.
