“Why doesn't anybody tell us that we are not always the same, that it takes time for us to become who we are?”
Marcos Giralt Torrente, The End of Love

“Readers are distrustful and, although they accept the rules of the proposed game upon entry, they remain on the lookout for the slightest contradiction and often allow their own prejudices to lead them astray. When they have an openly autobiographical text in their hands, they lie in wait for possible falsehoods. When it’s a novel or a story, they try to uncover the autobiographical subtext.”
Marcos Giralt Torrente

“The aspiration of all writers should be to avoid leaving fissures in their work, to make sure that everything is properly secured so readers won’t find a single toehold for their suspicions.”
