Quotes by Roque Larraquy (?)

“His mother walks in and greets us. She’s traded her green gloves for a T-shirt that says Denmark. Lucio tells her she’s picked the wrong country. His mother explains that she’s trying out a system invented by Dag that involves announcing one’s mood with T-shirts. Denmark is, logically, bad news.”
― Roque Larraquy, Comemadre

“Do you see this shoelace? I’d like to take it and tie your tongue to your uvula, and your uvula to your stomach, and your stomach to your uterus, so that the very first word of your answer leaves you hollow.”
― Roque Larraquy, Comemadre

“At night we come up with daring plans that would change us completely, were they to become a reality. But these plans dissolve in the morning light, and we go back to being the same mediocrities as before, doggedly ruining our own lives.”
― Roque Larraquy, La comemadre
