Allá por los 80, Marina Alonso Espejo sacaba a pasear su máquina de escribir atada a un monopatín junto a una caja de gusanos de seda. Años más tarde, en los escalones de la Facultad de Biología, escribiría biografías
inventadas de las flores prensadas de su herbario, sabiendo que su amor por la naturaleza y la ficción no eran una simple fase. Sin embargo, no asumió su deseo de ser escritora hasta bien asentada la treintena, pero dicen que nunca es tarde si la dicha es buena.

More of Librera's books…
William Carlos Williams
“We sit and talk,
quietly, with long lapses of silence
and I am aware of the stream
that has no language, coursing
beneath the quiet heaven of
your eyes
which has no speech”
William Carlos Williams, Paterson

Margaret Atwood
“Nolite te bastardes carborundorum. Don't let the bastards grind you down.”
Margaret Atwood, The Handmaid’s Tale

E.E. Cummings
“may my heart always be open to little
birds who are the secrets of living
whatever they sing is better than to know
and if men should not hear them men are old

may my mind stroll about hungry
and fearless and thirsty and supple
and even if it's sunday may i be wrong
for whenever men are right they are not young

and may myself do nothing usefully
and love yourself so more than truly
there's never been quite such a fool who could fail
pulling all the sky over him with one smile”
E.E. Cummings, E.E. Cummings: Complete Poems 1904-1962

John  Williams
“In his forty-third year William Stoner learned what others, much younger, had learned before him: that the person one loves at first is not the person one loves at last, and that love is not an end but a process through which one person attempts to know another.”
John Williams, Stoner

Carson McCullers
“love is a joint experience between two persons—but the fact that it is a joint experience does not mean that it is a similar experience to the two people involved. There are the lover and the beloved, but these two come from different countries. Often the beloved is only a stimulus for all the stored-up love which has lain quiet within the lover for a long time hitherto. And somehow every lover knows this. He feels in his soul that his love is a solitary thing. He comes to know a new, strange loneliness and it is this knowledge which makes him suffer.”
Carson McCullers, The Ballad of the Sad Café and Other Stories
