I read Ramón Gay’s prose on the mystery of artistic creation and was amazed.
Which book helped you the most?
All self-help books focus on the ego, which no longer exists as a thought. There is one more in all this confusion, the fact is that if you think about it, someone else will appear.
If you can’t be a writer, why would you want to be one?
As one of my titles I was curious Ser el canto.
A historical story that made her enjoy life in situ.
The story is always the same: oppressors and oppressed.
Why did you exclude less than five books from this volume, the first of your bibliography, any of which included prizes?
Since they are not supported as books, I have tended to get involved to want to publish them.
This is it Poetry reunited (Visor) who don’t have their previous books?
Each reader will receive this response in his own way, for the reader is as much a creator as the poet, unless he has poetry.
Aren’t you afraid that these new poems will be held against you, as some of those who left them have done?
From there, this fear is always unfortunately a sign of respect. But I wanted to try: I tried to clear my mind of the poet’s intrusions, and along the way I came across more than a hundred and fifty new poems, as I now fear…
Life experience gave way to song, celebration, silence, beauty… How did it happen?
I want you to tell the truth: I have no idea, the poet is the first surprise before the sobriety of writing.
What is most telling about the poem?
That part of thoughts and experiences that puts them into verse, separating them from the revelatory experience of poetry, which is a word that is born from a word, not from an idea, always adocenado.
A record or song to pop in the hole these days.
Now I am wrapped up in Hindustani music, it is crystalline.
What streak did you complete the fastest? Would you say it’s the best you’ve seen? Or something else?
Among the best quotes A doctor in Alaska –the one in moroso, en clave poética–. Here is what one eats: breaking Bad y The Big Bang Theory.
What movie will you want to live and what will not matter to you for a minute?
You will live in this delicacy Orderby Carl Dreyer. I won’t wait a minute in the nineties for the hundreds of current exercisers.
Have you ever experienced Stendhal Syndrome?
We read Juana de Yepes, I listen to Mozart… Don’t shed tears!
Don’t let the language die, let’s say you can’t stand the cultural world.
In order not to tolerate anything, I have to give it some importance. The cultural world is – and is as good as it is – for the voracious, for those who still seek fame and illustrated crowds.
Superlative shade.
All Almodóvar films.
What was the last exhibit you saw? What impressions did they leave on you?
No frequent exhibitions. Todavía no he podido acabarme esa benedición, el Museo del Prado.
Spain is a country…
But does Spain exist? Hadn’t a certain Pedro el Hermoso turned it into his court?
