Arturo Pérez-Reverte Quote

Me llamo Boris Balkan y una vez traduje La Cartuja de Parma. Por lo demás, las críticas y recensiones que escribo salen en suplementos y revistas de media Europa, organizo cursos sobre escritores contemporáneos en las universidades de verano, y tengo algunos libros editados sobre novela popular del XIX. Nada espectacular, me temo; sobre todo en estos tiempos donde los suicidios se disfrazan de homicidios, las novelas son escritas por el médico de Rogelio Ackroyd, y demasiada gente se empeña en publicar doscientas páginas sobre las apasionantes vivencias que experimenta mirándose al espejo.
