WDSC_6962One day Paco Umbral said that “the reality is always necessary to invent it from four information that there gives us the life, which utopizar is to be saved from the reality”. He was referring to inventing clearly, across the writing, but the true thing is that the reality can be rescued of other ways, it is possible to sublimate. It is possible to avert with reading the routine and to submit it with words like a dilapidated dragon, whose fire, after the literary prodigy it cannot already burn us. Se puede conjurar con lectura la rutina y someterla con palabras como un dragón desvencijado, cuyo fuego, después del prodigio literario ya no puede quemarnos.

The persons form the cities, and there where there is some anxious spirit, the provincial thing happens to be only worn-out adjective. From August, a new called bookstore LETTERS tries to open, we would not say even a way, but for the time being a small by-path, a minuscule path in the oficializado intellectual drowsiness of the city of Avila. It is not going to be easy, but it was necessary to try it, it was necessary to present cultural alternatives from the private ambience. After the different activities that the bookstore of San Roque has realizing 12 from its opening, today we greet the new club of reading that will start shortly, the first one in blooming far from the garden of the public libraries. Welcome is this initiative. No va a ser fácil, pero había que intentarlo, era necesario presentar alternativas culturales desde el ámbito privado. Después de las distintas actividades que viene realizando la librería de San Roque 12 desde su apertura, hoy saludamos el nuevo club de lectura que arrancará en breve, el primero en florecer lejos del jardín de las bibliotecas públicas. Bienvenida sea esta iniciativa.

One does not start from the beginning, although the experience is new. For any serious trip (“wonderful adventure is the reading”, that would say my eight-year-old daughter) there are needed awake and passionate guides, persons like Concha Dávila, that navy of illusion and of metaphors, has decided to submit the memory and the future to the grammar. For incredible that seems, before the civil digital anesthesia through that we live, it does not stop being subversive the fact that a few souls win concerning the reading and try to turn the subjective thing into group. Por increíble que parezca, ante la anestesia digital ciudadana que vivimos, no deja de ser subversivo el que unas cuantas almas se concilien en torno a la lectura e intenten convertir lo subjetivo en colectivo.

The Bookstore Letters, with Gemma Orgaz to the head, will be the temple where on a species of Castilian round table, a book sacrifices itself from time to time. A bloodless sacrifice of printed letter that allows to its participants to light the sacred flame of the good literature, a flame that saves the physical and mental walls, a light of words that illuminates our steps towards the ground of the knowledge.
