El libro de los oficios tristes

Monte Carmelo / Destrazas Ediciones, 2015
cover

In this text, “The Dishwasher”, “The Miner”, “The Door-to-door Salesman”, “The Balloon-seller” and other tradesmen find their share of melancholy. The author has practiced some of these trades, which gives him the right to bear witness, and those he has not practiced he imagines in their sadness, which makes this book a work of empathy with the other self, with our selves.
