Loette Stop Break Through Bleeding

rediscover the books we have read yet built

There are writers whose influence is so strong that still influence us without ever having read, remembered him yesterday afternoon, while walking through the historic center, the cold space and anachronistic in the rockers come together every day, Merola, poets, achimeros and junkies, and I came across an old artist friend with whom I have no doubt a large debt and that it was not until then that we speak, has always felt a secret interest in books, including a writer, but consistent with my environment, never I was born a real interest in me books, as they were not by chance that came to my hands, so that when I wrote my first lines, those born more by the influence exerted listening music in me, which by a process intellectual, he did turn to have much of chance and enigmatic. mid 90's a friend had at City Center space in which, among other things, read Tarot cards, but where on Saturday we met with a group of painters has been talk of the most diverse the idea he was talking about esoteric, what really happened to the background, it was there I met painter and this friend who told us stories he had told him, but did not know who was the author of them, but they generated in me a strong influence and that prompted me to write my first story, over the years and the first reading I soon discovered that two of the stories carried by name The Immortal and The Gospel According to St. Mark and that its author was Jorge Luis Borges, but had more and it was not until two years ago that I found him and asked him about it, it was then that he told me he had discovered that the author was Horacio Quiroga and stories, among others, were The feather pillows and The Decapitated Chicken .
