#7 My favorite book
Whenever I have to choose a thing like my favorite I remember all the things that I like and I can not choose.
Thinking who would be my favorite author, I can not choose between Jose Luis Borges, Julio Cortazar and Roberto Bolaño. Borges and Cortazar are Argentines and Bolaño is Chilean, all three write literature. Usually I only read literature, when I read other things it is because of the university or because I want to learn something.
The last book I read was Putas asesinas by Roberto Bolaño, I read it for the second time and I liked it the same as the first time I read it, I feel it is a quick book to read, They are thirteen short stories, my favorite is Putas asesinas, tries about a woman who seduces a Spanish nationalist, whom she knows on television. Finally she kidnaps him in her house.
I recommend this book, simply because I recommend reading Bolaño.
I do not have a favorite book, because in general I think I have been lucky with the readings I have chosen. I always read books recommended by my friends, I trust their tastes.
When I read what I wrote in this blog, I realized that I almost only read men and it made me very sad to think that there are great writers, of whom I can not stop writing.
Diamela Eltit for example, her first novel LUMPÈRICA, is a really beautiful book, it gives "a return" to the language due to the repressive crisis of the military dictatorship.
