Here is the book in PDF but the essay by that title isn’t in it and any book I would have that in is in the office. Perhaps I shouldn’t have moved them. But here we are. Vallejo praises Pablo Abril’s Ausencia (they were, of course, also friends). I like JM’s idea of using CeSP … More Contra el secreto profesional

I thought the most recent one was in 2019 but there’s a 2023 ebook that is really from a 2004 book, and there are many more. Sometimes I was asked for permission and sometimes I was not. I should really compile a whole list. Axé.
