Interview with Spanish newspaper El Pais.

• Imagination and that message suspended in the air that remains within the reach of whoever wants to catch it, like a poem.

Yes, we are talking about poetry, that is. When I write a book, I try to add lyrical value and at the same time transmit something stronger, and I try to allow each one to interpret in their own way.

• Something stronger with several meanings at the same time?

As in my opinion should happen with all stories. And those meanings should be simple, but complex. If you go to nature, you discover that the most impressive things are simple: the sea, the sky, the snow, that it is white, and that’s it.

• They limit themselves to the essential, as the Coptic says in his book. That one should not be obsessed with being useful, but simply with being.

Yes, and people prefer to be than to be, with their clicking, in case you have to be critical of the Internet. We must separate the real from the virtual. Being implies engaging in commitment.
