  • De deudas y ficción

    Inevitablemente, el escritor de cualquier libro adquiere deudas incontables, y cuando el tema es tan interdisciplinario como éste, esas deudas son en particular, sensibles. Durante la casi década que ha tomado completar este trabajo; he recibido la generosa ayuda de un amplio rango de personas. Soy consciente de lo poco adecuado que resulte cualquier reconocimiento de ella, que yo pudiera ofrecer a cambio.

    No sé  [para empezar como cancion de Linkin Park] pero los escritores de ficción le deben mucho a los escritores a los que leyeron. Algunas veces, leer autores a los que no había leído hasta después de leer a los que sí, es un descubrimiento es sí mismo. Saber de donde salieron algunas ideas es una delicia.

    Disfruta la labor detectivesca. Pasto kalo.

  • Fiction and debt

    The writer of any book inevitably accrues debts, and when its theme is as interdisciplinary as this one those debts are particularly keenly felt. During the near-decade that it has taken to complete this work, I have received generous help from a wide range of people. I am conscious of the inadequacy of any acknowledgment I can now give in return.

    I don’t know [to start like a Linkin Park song], but fiction writers owe a lot of what they write to the writers they read.

    Sometimes reading earlier authors we hadn’t read before those that we already have [more contemporary ] is a discovery in itself. To know where certain ideas came from is a delight.

    Have fun playing detective work. Pasto kalo.
