"Impresionante el esfuerzo intelectual que hace Don Rubén para justificar su visión prescindiendo, al menos de momento, de las explicaciones sobrenaturales que él sabe son las correctas. Todo sea para no espantar al lector positivista. En un momento se queja abiertamente de lo agotador que resulta este ejercicio—para él como autor, claro, porque para uno como lector es muy estimulante." — Jan 24, 2026 10:47AM

"Un camino de lectura amable que recomendé a alguien que le llamó la atención que O'Connor fuera católica, teniendo en cuenta lo escabrosa que es su literatura: 1) "Un hombre bueno es difícil de encontrar"; 2) "El río" y 3) "El negro artificial".
1) Sólo quiere ver el mundo arder; 2) la vida es dura pero a veces la solución es más dura y 3) O'Connor te lleva de la mano y te explica por qué escribe lo que escribe." — Jan 17, 2026 07:57AM

“If you’ve been redeemed,” he said, “I wouldn’t want to be.” Then he turned his head to the window. He saw his pale reflection with the dark empty space outside coming through it. A boxcar roared past, chopping the empty space in two, and one of the women laughed.
“Do you think I believe in Jesus?” he said, leaning toward her and speaking almost as if he were breathless. “Well I wouldn’t even if He existed. Even if He was on this train.”
― Wise Blood
