Quote by Antonio Heras

“Todo el mundo sabía que Pedro Roca era un hijo de puta. Sus empleados, su hija, su mujer, sus amantes, sus padres, su abogado, su carnicero, su camello, el tío que le abría la puerta del coche. Incluso puede que él mismo lo supiera, aunque eso lo pondremos en cuarentena.”

Tangy and pungent, like rising bread or wet earth, these soybeans smell of history, of life, of tiny, patient movements, unseen by the naked eye.”
