In a recent interview granted to the Associated Press, Secretary of the Swedish Academy, Horace Engdahl, said: U.S. is too insular, too isolated. Do not translate enough and do not participate in the big dialogue of literature. This kind of ignorance they are limited. They are too sensitive to trends in their own mass culture ... Apparently the academic not without some reason, in denouncing what the culture market has currently literature, not only in America but worldwide, since in Latin America are also beginning to thrive various writers of design, which we marketed as literary fashions, but we must recognize that generalizes too much of a country also has real and profound writers. 
Now, let us look at the Swedish Academy, which he represents and is responsible for electing the Nobel Prize for Literature, an award that has become adverse to that version Light the academic literature, so implicitly criticizes ever released in October a new Best Seller, which amounts to something of a nontraditional product in the market, but is willing to make at all costs its position within the same and that is, both the market and the academy, seem to be engaged in a media battle to occupy the best position of the display cases in supermarkets, with something that could be described as non-literature, for although what big publishing books we have are very superficial, which the Nobel Prize has given us in recent years seem to be books with a value added selections where the trends seem to outweigh political and humanitarian author's literary level is reached in his work. 
And it happens that someone who is not a communist, socialist renovated, a supporter of terrorist groups Third, feminist, indigenous, pacifist, environmentalist, animal advocate, anti-neoliberal globalofobico or, for those follies of life, is devoted to the occurrence of sympathetic letters, is someone who already is doomed not to be one of the Swedish canon big names, already the go into the list of Nobel Prize winners is like visiting a telephone directory in which inevitably over some names sound familiar to us, but in which the majority are completely unknown, now clear that all winners are guaranteed their 15 minutes of fame, after which they will fade into the nearest sewer literature, such and as will happen sooner or later Ultra Light prefabricated authors of both scholars deny. 
The prize has always been controversial, but recent unrest has become more noticeable, especially after the resignation of Knut Ahnlund academic, who made it very clear all the banality that has gradually been undergoing the same, to influence the selection extraliterary aspects fully, but, like all modern franchise that claims to be genuine, ongoing and will continue to create excitement and huge sales volumes and we who live obsessed with intellectual market fluctuations and trends of literary fashion, we will be on the lookout tomorrow to see who wins this year, saying that Monterroso, literature that there is nothing written.
But more than that, more than his books, this author-like rock of the 90's, we once again about the abyss that we often ignore and subtlety which once had approached us and writers such as Alejandra Pizarnik or Rock stars as Wendy Orlean Williams: suicide as a form of protest to a world that is not compatible with our ideals or simply a pathetic act of cowardice in the face a reality that was not what we imagined and that really is big monster that our miserable intellectual forces, which secretly we hide in quiet and compelling reading evenings or best writing. 
Currently there are a number of connection points to which man should be tied every day, not because he is scheduled to be so, but as mere conditions of existence in society, points when he lost or weak bank into individual to a margin which is uncomfortable, being a prisoner of unrest that will eventually deepening, there are those who are immersed in the addiction, until it leads them to a point of no return, whose basic characteristic is that they self-destruct allows refrain from reality that they are unable to cope, others seek refuge on an intellectual level that somehow allows them to ignore this loss of connection and the last are those who simply open the escape hatch and jump out, David Wallace in some ways, was a synthesis of three great writer who portrayed all that internal unrest of the empty product contemporary, similarly suffered 20 years of depression, dependent on antidepressants, whose side effects came to be unbearable and finally reached a point where, as noted by his father, James Donald Wallace, tried everything. Simply could not resist more .
