“Fragmento de El fantasma de Harlot(una historia novelada de la CIA), Norman Mailer ,1991.
Ahora, por supuesto, hay toda clase de bullicio en algunas partes de la ciudad. Las tiendas tienen
nombres como Lola y Marbella, y sólo venden ropa. Este sábado hay hordas de compradores de
aspecto materialista. Las reses cuelgan en las carnicerías, terriblemente sanguinolentas. De hecho,
se come tanta carne en este país (¡ciento veinte kilos per cápita!), que es posible oler grasa de
barbacoa en todas las esquinas. El olor se mete en todo lo que uno come, pescado, pollo, huevos.
Proviene de los grandes bovinos que galopan por las pampas. Pero no es este olor de las parrillas el
elemento que encuentro único. Son las calles laterales. Montevideo es una ciudad que se
desparrama, y las partes antiguas permanecen; sólo se les hace una suerte de refacción. La mayoría
de los nativos no viven en la historia tal cual la conocemos nosotros. Cuando me marché de
Washington, todo el mundo estaba preocupado por Hungría y Suez y la campaña presidencial.
Ahora me siento alejado de los problemas del mundo. En Montevideo, todos los relojes públicos
parecen haberse detenido.”

“Among the privileges of being a superpower, the right and the ability to make a local quarrel into a global one ranks very high.”
