Tengo la impresión de que, al enseñarme a leer, Margit me enseñó algo secreto que da sentido al trabajo de la lectura. No estoy seguro de qué es, pero lo guardo como se guarda un tesoro.

Just some British patriots in Benidorm, taking over a street in Spain to shout in their own language about unwanted foreigners. It’s a blessing that they are too thick to understand irony.

Inconcebible para mí que "Corazón tan blanco" esté hasta arriba de esta lista de los mejores 50 libros de los últimos 50 años. Pero por lo menos Chirbes le pisa los talones. Esas sí son dos Españas (no sé si las mismas de las que habla Jordi Amat hoy)

New map produced by RTVE, Spanish national TV, of the 6000 mass graves in Spain. In the last 25 years some 17,000 bodies of men, women and children have been exhumed out of the ~120,000 dumped in mass unmarked graves by the Franco regime.

El plan de resignificación de Cuelgamuros pretende convertir el monumento en "un lugar de encuentro y diálogo". Y lo cierto es que no se me ocurre peor manera de empezar la resignificación de aquello. Escribo al respecto en @publico.es

Kyle Kingsbury is not a journalist. He is not an op-ed writer.

He is a computer safety researcher.

And he has written one of the most compelling, comprehensive accounts of the ongoing hell in Chicago that you could possibly imagine.

In under 1600 words.

The appointment of John Kirby to direct the Institute of Politics is shocking and disgraceful. Kirby misled the public systematically over a long period, over grave matters of life and death. He has no place in an institution committed to truthful inquiry or a democratic public sphere.
