Y textos sobre literatura: el sentido de la escritura; el proceso creativo; del placer de la lectura; el cuento entendido como genero de la audacia y la concentracion narrativa; Chejov como fuente de la que brota toda la cuentistica contemporanea; Carver como ser humano, mas alla del genio literario y del mito; la poderosa verdad narrativa de escritores como Richard Yates o James Salter... Un libro imprescindible para completar el canon fordiano, para descubrir sus fuentes de inspiracion, las claves intimas de su universo literario y su pasion de lector. / This book brings together for the first time Richard Fords essays and memories, in which he reflects over literature and life.
