Quotes by Abelardo Díaz Alfaro (?)

“Terrazo: siluetas de sangre contra un paisaje luminoso. De los trillos, de las veredas, de los caminos reales que conducen a donde el bohío prende su ojo negro de angustia sobre los surcos abiertos al dolor y a la esperanza, surgieron estos aguafuertes del terruño. Desde el cogollo más empinado en la guinda de mis recuerdos más puros, dedico el libro a los compadres don Fruto Torres, don Pepe Ramos (El Gato), don Goyito Rosa, don Valé Morrabal, don Rafa Ramírez. Jíbaros de mi tierra que me mostraron ese Puerto Rico trágico, estoico, irreductible. Mi Puerto Rico bagazo, mi Puerto Rico josco, mi Puerto Rico pitirre. Abelardo Díaz Alfaro”
