other's blouses and&lt;br /&gt;pushed our crying ahead of us like a lantern,&lt;br /&gt;searching out new and forgotten sadnesses,&lt;br /&gt;ones that had died politely years ago but in fact&lt;br /&gt;had not died, and came to life with a little water." &lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:85%;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-style: italic;"&gt;Miranda July, "It Was Romance"&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;/p&gt;    &lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;span lang="ES"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;span lang="ES"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;No es lo más habitual, pero a veces siento que por fin pertenezco a algún lugar. Puede pasarme detrás del visor de la cámara (todo depende de a qué esté apuntando, claro), con la llovizna de un día de felicidad gris y el conductor de un auto de colección, mirando por la ventanilla de un colectivo que va a ningún lado mientras Ian Curtis hilvana existencialismo para mí. Creo que no lo llamaría epifanía, aunque si conociera cosa semejante seguramente tendría un sabor parecido. Esto es como la estevia de la iluminación.&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;    &lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;span lang="ES"&gt;—Decime cuántos muñequitos ves.&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;    &lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;span lang="ES"&gt;Por esa especie de binocular veo un tipito simpático de perfil; está dando una zancada muy graciosa, como si marchara para entretenerme; en la mano que va adelante lleva un ramo de flores; me cuesta distinguir si en la que va detrás tiene un balde o un tarro de pintura. Descarto lo último por ilógico. Lo primero también. Me arrepiento instantáneamente de mis razones.&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;    &lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;span lang="ES"&gt;—Uno.&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;    &lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;span lang="ES"&gt;Ella cambia algo de lugar o aprieta no sé qué; hay ruido de cristalitos; quizás esté imaginando cosas. Espero que pase algo. De pronto, el tipito simpático empieza a desdoblarse y ya no es uno sino que aparecen dos. Se han repartido las herramientas: ahora uno avanza con la flor y el otro retrocede de espaldas con el balde o el tarro de pintura. La divergencia.&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;    &lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;span lang="ES"&gt;—Dos.&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;    &lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;span lang="ES"&gt;¿O son apenas dos personalidades del mismo tipito y debería preguntarle si es una trampa en lugar de una prueba? ¿O fueron siempre dos tipitos parados en perfecta hilera que simulaban ser uno? Miro cómo se deslizan, complementarios, describiendo un sutil arco iris a la inversa. Los sigo cuando vuelven a unirse y me digo que si Gondry estuviera sentado en esta butaca, sentiría que la realidad le da irónicamente la razón adentro de esta máquina.&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;    &lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;span lang="ES"&gt;—Uno de nuevo.&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;    &lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;span lang="ES"&gt;Dejo de sospechar. Me esmero ahora en encontrar las definiciones. Mientras los tipitos se borronean a propósito, pienso que no es para nada razonable suponer que alguien quiera tenderme una trampa. Enfoco; determino; persigo. Soy buena, y me asombro. Tengo que contárselo: me oigo a mí misma cuando digo “uno, dos, uno, dos” como si especificara e hiciera marchar al tipito al mismo tiempo. Los números son notas musicales y tienen forma humana.&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;    &lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;span lang="ES"&gt;—Bueno. —Se aleja hacia el escritorio. Me priva del espejismo real—. ¿Viste dos muñequitos? —Asiento. Pregunta pero ya lo sabe. Los miré, con diligencia—. No tendrías que haberlos visto. Nunca estuvieron ahí: siempre fue uno solo.&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;    &lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;span lang="ES"&gt;—¿Qué?... Pero...&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;    &lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;span lang="ES"&gt;De pronto necesito consuelo, explicación, resarcimiento. Me percato de la presencia de otra paciente en la habitación, una señora algo mayor que está sentada junto a una ventana; en el regazo tiene un libro con diagramas estrambóticos que seguramente hagan honor a un Bonne, un Wallsten o un Voronoi. La miro. Habla por ella y por la otra que está apuntando a una luz a cinco metros de distancia con el ojo derecho, con el ojo izquierdo, con el derecho, ayudada por una infinidad de espejos transparentes dispuestos en una cajita.&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;span lang="ES"&gt;—No te aflijas...

The landscape there is rugged, and our company was working beside a little lake in the forest. It was very cold, about 30 degrees, and from time to time a few snowflakes fell through the gray, rain-dimmed sky. The company was dressed in a strange variety of clothing—raincoats, oil slickers, Icelandic sweaters, leather jackets, old blankets, coachmen's coats, medieval robes. Our men had laid some ninety feet of rusty, buckling rail over the difficult terrain, to dolly the camera on. We were all helping with the equipment—actors, electricians, make-up men, script girl, sound crew—mainly to keep warm. Suddenly someone shouted and pointed toward the sky. Then we saw a crane high above the fir trees, and then another, and then several cranes, floating majestically in a circle above us. We all dropped what we were doing and ran to the top of a nearby hill to see the cranes better. We stood there for a long time, until they turned westward and disappeared over the forest. And suddenly I thought: this is what it means to make a movie in Sweden.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify; font-family: times new roman;"&gt;  &lt;/div&gt;&lt;p  style="text-align: justify;font-family:times new roman;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:130%;"&gt;This is what can happen, this is how we work together with our old equipment and little money, and this is how we can suddenly drop everything for the love of four cranes floating above the treetops.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify; font-family: times new roman;"&gt;  &lt;/div&gt;&lt;p  style="text-align: justify;font-family:times new roman;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:130%;"&gt;My association with film goes back to the world of childhood. My grandmother had a very large old apartment in Uppsala. I used to sit under the dining-room table there, "listening" to the sunshine that came in through the gigantic window. The bells of the cathedral went ding-dong, and the sunlight moved about and "sounded" in a special way. One day, when winter was giving way to spring and I was five years old, a piano was being played in the next apartment. It played waltzes, nothing but waltzes. On the wall hung a large picture of Venice. As the sunlight moved across the picture, the water in the canal began to flow, the pigeons flew up from the square, gesticulating people were engaged in inaudible conversation. Bells sounded, not from Uppsala Cathedral, but from the picture itself. And the piano music also came from that remarkable picture of Venice.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify; font-family: times new roman;"&gt;  &lt;/div&gt;&lt;p  style="text-align: justify;font-family:times new roman;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:130%;"&gt;A child who is born and brought up in a vicarage acquires an early familiarity with life and death behind the scenes. Father performed funerals, marriages, baptisms; he gave advice and prepared sermons. The Devil was an early acquaintance, and in the child's mind there was a need to personify him. This is where my magic lantern came in. It consisted of a small metal box with a carbide lamp—I can still remember the smell of the hot metal—and coloured glass slides: Red Riding Hood and the Wolf, and all the others. The Wolf was the Devil, without horns but with a tail and a red mouth, strangely real yet incomprehensible, a picture of wickedness and temptation on the flowered wall of the nursery.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify; font-family: times new roman;"&gt;  &lt;/div&gt;&lt;p  style="text-align: justify;font-family:times new roman;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:130%;"&gt;When I was ten years old I received my first, rattling film projector, with its chimney and lamp. I found it both mystifying and fascinating. The first film I had was nine feet long and brown in colour. It showed a girl, lying asleep in a meadow, who woke up and stretched out her arms, then disappeared to the right. That was all there was to it. The film was a great success and was projected every night until it broke and could not be mended any more.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify; font-family: times new roman;"&gt;  &lt;/div&gt;&lt;p  style="text-align: justify;font-family:times new roman;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:130%;"&gt;This little rickety machine was my first conjuring set. And even today I remind myself with childish excitement that, since cinematography is based on deception of the human eye, I really am a conjurer. I have worked it out that if I see a film with a running-time of one hour, I sit through twenty-seven minutes of complete darkness—the blankness between frames. When I show a film, I am guilty of deceit. I use an apparatus which is constructed to take advantage of a certain human weakness, an apparatus with which I can sway my audience in a highly emotional manner—make them laugh, scream with fright, smile, believe in fairy stories, become indignant, feel shocked, charmed, deeply moved, or perhaps yawn with boredom. Thus I am either an impostor or, where the audience is willing to be taken in, a conjurer. I perform conjuring tricks with apparatus so expensive and so wonderful that any performer in history would have given anything to own or to make use of it.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify; font-family: times new roman;"&gt;  &lt;/div&gt;&lt;p  style="text-align: justify;font-family:times new roman;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:130%;"&gt;A film for me begins with something very vague—a chance remark or a bit of conversation, a hazy but agreeable event unrelated to any particular situation. It can be a few bars of music, a shaft of light across the street. Sometimes in my work at the theatre I have envisioned actors made up for yet unplayed roles.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify; font-family: times new roman;"&gt;  &lt;/div&gt;&lt;p  style="text-align: justify;font-family:times new roman;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:130%;"&gt;These are split-second impressions that disappear as quickly as they come, yet leave behind a mood—like pleasant dreams. It is a mental state, not an actual story, but one abounding in fertile associations and images. Most of all, it is a brightly coloured thread sticking out of the dark sack of the unconscious. If I begin to wind up this thread, and do so carefully, a complete film will emerge.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify; font-family: times new roman;"&gt;  &lt;/div&gt;&lt;p  style="text-align: justify;font-family:times new roman;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:130%;"&gt;This primitive nucleus strives to achieve definite form, moving in a way that may be lazy and half-asleep at first. Its stirring is accompanied by vibrations and rhythms that are very special, and unique to each film. The picture sequences then assume a pattern in accordance with these rhythms, obeying laws born out of and conditioned by my original stimulus.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify; font-family: times new roman;"&gt;  &lt;/div&gt;&lt;p  style="text-align: justify;font-family:times new roman;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:130%;"&gt;If that embryonic substance seems to have enough strength to be made into a film, I decide to materialize it. Then comes something very complicated and difficult: the transformation of rhythms, moods, atmosphere, tensions, sequences, tones, and scents into words and sentences, into an understandable screenplay.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify; font-family: times new roman;"&gt;  &lt;/div&gt;&lt;p  style="text-align: justify;font-family:times new roman;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:130%;"&gt;This is an almost impossible task.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify; font-family: times new roman;"&gt;  &lt;/div&gt;&lt;p  style="text-align: justify;font-family:times new roman;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:130%;"&gt;The only thing that can be satisfactorily transferred from that original complex of rhythms and moods is the dialogue, and even dialogue is a sensitive substance which may offer resistance. Written dialogue is like a musical score, almost incomprehensible to the average person. Its interpretation demands a technical knack plus a certain kind of imagination and feeling—qualities which are often lacking even among actors. One can write dialogue, but how it should be delivered, its rhythm and tempo, what is to take place between the lines—all this must be omitted for practical reasons. A script with that much detail would be unreadable. I try to squeeze instructions as to location, characterization, and atmosphere into my screenplays in understandable terms, but the success of this depends on my writing ability and the perceptiveness of the reader, which are not predictable.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify; font-family: times new roman;"&gt;  &lt;/div&gt;&lt;p  style="text-align: justify;font-family:times new roman;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:130%;"&gt;Now we come to essentials by which I mean montage, rhythm, and the relation of one picture to another: the vital third dimension without which the film is merely a dead product from a factory. Here I cannot clearly give a key, as in a musical score, or a specific idea of the tempo which determines the relationship of the elements involved. It is quite impossible for me to indicate the way in which the film "breathes" and pulsates.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify; font-family: times new roman;"&gt;  &lt;/div&gt;&lt;p  style="text-align: justify;font-family:times new roman;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:130%;"&gt;I have often wished for a kind of notation which would enable me to put on paper all the shades and tones of my vision, to record distinctly the inner structure of a film. For when I stand in the artistically devastating atmosphere of the studio, my hands and head full of all the trivial and irritating details that go with motion-picture production, it often takes a tremendous effort to remember how I originally saw and thought out this or that sequence, or what the relation was between the scene of four weeks ago and that of today. If I could express myself clearly, in explicit symbols, then the irrational factors in my work would be almost eliminated, and I could work with absolute confidence that whenever I liked I could prove the relationship between the part and the whole and put my finger on the rhythm, the continuity of the film.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify; font-family: times new roman;"&gt;  &lt;/div&gt;&lt;p  style="text-align: justify;font-family:times new roman;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:130%;"&gt;Thus the script is a very imperfect &lt;i&gt;technical basis&lt;/i&gt; for a film. And there is another important point which I should like to mention in this connection. Film has nothing to do with literature: the character and substance of the two art forms are usually in conflict. This probably has something to do with the receptive process of the mind. The written word is read and assimilated by a conscious act of the will in alliance with the intellect; little by little it affects the imagination and the emotions. The process is different with a motion picture. When we experience a film, we consciously prime ourselves for illusion; putting aside will and intellect, we make way for it in our imagination. The sequence of images plays directly on our feelings without touching on the intellect.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify; font-family: times new roman;"&gt;  &lt;/div&gt;&lt;p  style="text-align: justify;font-family:times new roman;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:130%;"&gt;Music works in the same fashion; I would say that there is no art form that has as much in common with film as music. Both affect our emotions directly, not by way of the intellect. And film is mainly rhythm; it is inhalation and exhalation in continuous sequence. Ever since childhood, music has been my greatest source of recreation and stimulation, and I often experience a film or play musically.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify; font-family: times new roman;"&gt;  &lt;/div&gt;&lt;p  style="text-align: justify;font-family:times new roman;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:130%;"&gt;It is mainly because of this difference between film and literature that we should avoid making films out of books. The irrational dimension of a literary work, the germ of its existence, is often untranslatable into visual terms—and it, in turn, destroys the special, irrational dimension of the film. If, despite this, we wish to translate something literary into film terms, we must make an infinite number of complicated adjustments which often bear little or no fruit in proportion to the effort expended.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify; font-family: times new roman;"&gt;  &lt;/div&gt;&lt;p  style="text-align: justify;font-family:times new roman;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:130%;"&gt;I myself have never had any ambition to be an author. I do not want to write novels, short stories, essays, biographies, or even plays for the theatre. I only want to make films—films about conditions, tensions, pictures, rhythms, and characters that are in one way or another important to me. The motion picture and its complicated process of birth are my methods of saying what I want to my fellow men. I am a film maker, not an author.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify; font-family: times new roman;"&gt;  &lt;/div&gt;&lt;p  style="text-align: justify;font-family:times new roman;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:130%;"&gt;Thus the writing of the script is a difficult period but a useful one, for it compels me to prove logically the validity of my ideas. In doing this, I am caught in a conflict—a conflict between my need to transmit a complicated situation through visual images and my desire for absolute clarity. I do not intend my work to be solely for the benefit of myself or the few but for the entertainment of the general public. The wishes of the public are imperative. But sometimes I risk following my own impulse, and it has been shown that the public can respond with surprising sensitivity to the most unconventional line of development.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify; font-family: times new roman;"&gt;  &lt;/div&gt;&lt;p  style="text-align: justify;font-family:times new roman;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:130%;"&gt;When shooting begins, the most important thing is that those who work with me feel a definite contact, that all of us somehow cancel out our conflicts through working together. We must pull in one direction for the sake of the work at hand. Sometimes this leads to dispute, but the more definite and clear the "marching orders," the easier it is to reach the goal which has been set. This is the basis of my conduct as director, and perhaps the explanation for much of the nonsense that has been written about me.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify; font-family: times new roman;"&gt;  &lt;/div&gt;&lt;p  style="text-align: justify;font-family:times new roman;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:130%;"&gt;While I cannot let myself be concerned with what people think and say about me personally, I believe that reviewers and critics have every right to interpret my films as they like. I refuse to interpret my work to others, and I cannot tell the critic what to think; each person has the right to understand a film as he sees it. Either he is attracted or repelled. A film is made to create reaction. If the audience does not react one way or another, it is an indifferent work and worthless.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify; font-family: times new roman;"&gt;  &lt;/div&gt;&lt;p  style="text-align: justify;font-family:times new roman;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:130%;"&gt;I do not mean by this that I believe in being "different" at any price. A lot has been said about the value of originality, and I find it foolish; either you are original or you are not. It is completely natural for artists to take from and give to each other, to borrow from and experience one another. In my own life, my great literary experience was Strindberg. There are works of his which can still make my hair stand on end—&lt;i&gt;The People of Hemsö&lt;/i&gt;, for example. And it is my dream to produce his &lt;i&gt;Dream Play&lt;/i&gt; someday. Olof Molander's production of it in 1934 was for me a fundamental dramatic experience.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify; font-family: times new roman;"&gt;  &lt;/div&gt;&lt;p  style="text-align: justify;font-family:times new roman;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:130%;"&gt;On a personal level, there are many people who have meant a great deal to me. My father and mother were certainly of vital importance, not only in themselves but because they created a world for me to revolt against. In my family there was an atmosphere of hearty wholesomeness which I, a sensitive young plant, scorned and rebelled against. But that strict middle-class home gave me a wall to pound on, something to sharpen myself against. At the same time my family taught me a number of values—efficiency, punctuality, a sense of financial responsibility—which may be "bourgeois" but are nevertheless important to the artist. They are part of the process of setting oneself severe standards. Today as a film maker I am conscientious, hard-working, and extremely careful; my films involve good craftsmanship, and my pride is the pride of a good craftsman.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify; font-family: times new roman;"&gt;  &lt;/div&gt;&lt;p  style="text-align: justify;font-family:times new roman;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:130%;"&gt;Among the people who have meant something in my professional development is Torsten Hammaren of Göteborg. I came there from Hälsingborg, where I had been head of the municipal theatre for two years. I had no conception of what theatre was; Hammaren taught me during the four years I stayed in Göteborg. Then, when I wrote my first screenplay, &lt;i&gt;Torment&lt;/i&gt;, Alf Sjöberg, who directed it, taught me a great deal, as did Lorens Marmstedt after I had directed my first (unsuccessful) movie. Among other things, I learned from Marmstedt the one unbreakable rule: you must look at your own work very coldly and clearly; you must be a devil to yourself in the screening room when watching the day's rushes. Then there is Herbert Grevenius, one of the few who believed in me as a writer. I had trouble with script writing and was reaching out more and more to the drama, to dialogue, as a means of expression. He gave me great encouragement.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify; font-family: times new roman;"&gt;  &lt;/div&gt;&lt;p  style="text-align: justify;font-family:times new roman;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:130%;"&gt;Finally, there is Carl Anders Dymling, my producer. He is crazy enough to place more faith in the creative artist's sense of responsibility than in calculations of profit and loss. I am thus able to work with an integrity that has become the very air I breathe—one of the main reasons I do not want to work outside of Sweden. The moment I lose this freedom I will cease to be a film maker, because I have no skill in the art of compromise. My only significance in the world of film lies in the freedom of my creativity.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify; font-family: times new roman;"&gt;  &lt;/div&gt;&lt;p  style="text-align: justify;font-family:times new roman;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:130%;"&gt;Today, the ambitious film maker is obliged to walk a tightrope without a net. He may be a conjurer, but no one conjures the producer, the bank director, or the theatre owners when the public refuses to go to see a film and lay down the money by which producer, bank director, theatre owner, and conjurer live. The conjurer may then be deprived of his magic wand. I would like to be able to measure the amount of talent, initiative, and creative ability that has been destroyed by the film industry in its ruthlessly efficient sausage-machine. What was play to me once has now become a struggle. Failure, criticism, public indifference all hurt more today than yesterday. The brutality of the industry is unmasked—yet that can be an advantage.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify; font-family: times new roman;"&gt;  &lt;/div&gt;&lt;p  style="text-align: justify;font-family:times new roman;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:130%;"&gt;So much for people and the film business. I have been asked, as a clergyman's son, about the role of religion in my thinking and film making. To me, religious problems are continuously alive. I never cease to concern myself with them, and my concern goes on every hour of every day. Yet it does not take place on the emotional level but on an intellectual one. Religious emotion, religious sentimentality, is something I got rid of long ago—I hope. The religious problem is an intellectual one to me: the problem of my mind in relation to my intuition. The result is usually some kind of tower of Babel.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify; font-family: times new roman;"&gt;  &lt;/div&gt;&lt;p  style="text-align: justify;font-family:times new roman;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:130%;"&gt;Philosophically, there is a book which was a tremendous experience for me: Eino Kaila's &lt;i&gt;Psychology of the Personality&lt;/i&gt;. His thesis that man lives strictly according to his needs—negative and positive—was shattering to me, but terribly true. And I built on this ground.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify; font-family: times new roman;"&gt;  &lt;/div&gt;&lt;p  style="text-align: justify;font-family:times new roman;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:130%;"&gt;People ask what are my intentions with my films—my aims. It is a difficult and dangerous question, and I usually give an evasive answer: I try to tell the truth about the human condition, the truth as I see it. This answer seems to satisfy everyone, but it is not quite correct. I prefer to describe what I would &lt;i&gt;like&lt;/i&gt; my aim to be.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify; font-family: times new roman;"&gt;  &lt;/div&gt;&lt;p  style="text-align: justify;font-family:times new roman;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:130%;"&gt;There is an old story of how the Cathedral of Chartres was struck by lightning and burned to the ground. Then thousands of people came from all points of the compass, like a giant procession of ants, and together they began to rebuild the cathedral on its old site. They worked until the building was completed—master builders, artists, labourers, clowns, noblemen, priests, burghers. But they all remained anonymous, and no one knows to this day who rebuilt the Cathedral of Chartres.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify; font-family: times new roman;"&gt;  &lt;/div&gt;&lt;p  style="text-align: justify;font-family:times new roman;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:130%;"&gt;Regardless of my own beliefs and my own doubts, which are unimportant in this connection, it is my opinion that art lost its basic creative drive the moment it was separated from worship. It severed an umbilical cord and now lives its own sterile life, generating and degenerating itself. In former days the artist remained unknown and his work was to the glory of God. He lived and died without being more or less important than other artisans; "eternal values," "immortality," and "masterpiece" were terms not applicable to his case. The ability to create was a gift. In such a world flourished invulnerable assurance and natural humility.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify; font-family: times new roman;"&gt;  &lt;/div&gt;&lt;p  style="text-align: justify;font-family:times new roman;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:130%;"&gt;Today the individual has become the highest form, and the greatest bane, of artistic creation. The smallest wound or pain of the ego is examined under a microscope as if it were of eternal importance. The artist considers his isolation, his subjectivity, his individualism almost holy. Thus we finally gather in one large pen, where we stand and bleat about our loneliness without listening to each other and without realizing that we are smothering each other to death. The individualists stare into each other's eyes and yet deny each other's existence. We walk in circles, so limited by our own anxieties that we can no longer distinguish between true and false, between the gangster's whim and the purest ideal.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify; font-family: times new roman;"&gt;  &lt;/div&gt;&lt;p  style="text-align: justify;font-family:times new roman;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:130%;"&gt;Thus if I am asked what I would like the general purpose of my films to be, I would reply that I want to be one of the artists in the cathedral on the great plain. I want to make a dragon's head, an angel, a devil—or perhaps a saint—out of stone. It does not matter which; it is the sense of satisfaction that counts. Regardless of whether I believe or not, whether I am a Christian or not, I would play my part in the collective building of the cathedral.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/10136449-8047156946176536982?l=lamarcaenlapared.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://lamarcaenlapared.blogspot.com/feeds/8047156946176536982/comments/default' title='Comentarios de la entrada'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=10136449&amp;postID=8047156946176536982' title='0 Comentarios'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/10136449/posts/default/8047156946176536982'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/10136449/posts/default/8047156946176536982'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://lamarcaenlapared.blogspot.com/2007/07/swedish-conjurer.html' title='The Swedish conjurer'/><author><name>Guillermina</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/16505019650973654992</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10136449.post-3506839563771648525</id><published>2007-07-27T00:30:00.000-03:00</published><updated>2007-07-27T00:35:29.499-03:00</updated><title type='text'>Universal angst</title><content type='html'>&lt;div style="text-align: right;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-style: italic;"&gt;"My heroine would be myself, only in disguise."&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:85%;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-style: italic;"&gt;Sylvia Plath,&lt;/span&gt; The Bell Jar&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: left;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Yo quiero, pero la música no me deja.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;img src="http://i6.photobucket.com/albums/y241/guillerninia/Throughthelookingwindow.jpg" title="'Half-awake', mon (c)" border="0" /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;a style="font-style: italic;" href="http://www.americanmary.com/" target="_blank"&gt;The National&lt;/a&gt;&lt;span style="font-style: italic;"&gt;, "&lt;/span&gt;&lt;a style="font-style: italic;" href="http://www.fileden.com/files/2007/6/10/1162852/The%20National%2C%20Fake%20Empire.mp3" target="_blank" title="It's hard to keep track of you falling through the sky..."&gt;Fake Empire&lt;/a&gt;&lt;span style="font-style: italic;"&gt;"&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;(Me ahoga las palabras, los intentos).&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/10136449-3506839563771648525?l=lamarcaenlapared.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://lamarcaenlapared.blogspot.com/feeds/3506839563771648525/comments/default' title='Comentarios de la entrada'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=10136449&amp;postID=3506839563771648525' title='0 Comentarios'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/10136449/posts/default/3506839563771648525'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/10136449/posts/default/3506839563771648525'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://lamarcaenlapared.blogspot.com/2007/07/universal-angst.html' title='Universal angst'/><author><name>Guillermina</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/16505019650973654992</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10136449.post-8054790454975240563</id><published>2007-07-17T16:58:00.000-03:00</published><updated>2007-07-17T17:04:17.346-03:00</updated><title type='text'>Comme un poisson dans l'eau</title><content type='html'>&lt;div style="text-align: right;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-style: italic;"&gt;"It could be home."&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Con el nuevo orden, vuelve de a poco la música a la casa.

Ahora, por ejemplo, y en tren de dilemas, ¿qué hacía Diane Arbus verdaderamente cuando hacía lo que una?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Una fotógrafa me dijo que "lo de la composición es fácil" y como consejo me ordenó: "Nunca pongas nada en el centro". Qué imperativo tan peligroso. Yo, sin embargo, que aprendo y no bien aprendo olvido (una sutil manera de hacer todo a mi manera), fui, me topé con  Arbus y ya no precisé nada más para escuchar ese &lt;span style="font-style: italic;"&gt;silence intérieur&lt;/span&gt; que buscaba. (Curiosamente, no en mí).&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;img src="http://i6.photobucket.com/albums/y241/guillerninia/LadyBartender.jpg" title="'Lady Bartender at Home with a Souvenir Dog' (Nueva Orleans, 1964)" border="0" /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;img src="http://i6.photobucket.com/albums/y241/guillerninia/WomanwithRoses.jpg" title="'Lady at a Masked Ball with Two Roses on Her Dress' (Nueva York, 1967)" border="0" /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;img src="http://i6.photobucket.com/albums/y241/guillerninia/Untitled.jpg" title="Untitled, c. 1970-71" border="0" /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/10136449-2997125350150068938?l=lamarcaenlapared.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://lamarcaenlapared.blogspot.com/feeds/2997125350150068938/comments/default' title='Comentarios de la entrada'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=10136449&amp;postID=2997125350150068938' title='0 Comentarios'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/10136449/posts/default/2997125350150068938'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/10136449/posts/default/2997125350150068938'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://lamarcaenlapared.blogspot.com/2007/06/la-dcouverte-de.html' title='À la découverte de'/><author><name>Guillermina</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/16505019650973654992</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10136449.post-7158961062628959182</id><published>2007-05-24T11:57:00.000-03:00</published><updated>2008-11-13T00:00:11.774-02:00</updated><title type='text'>El hombre que creía en el futuro</title><content type='html'>&lt;div style="text-align: right; font-style: italic;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;"It was comforting to know I had&lt;br /&gt;fallen and could fall no further."&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: right;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:85%;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-style: italic;"&gt;Sylvia Plath,&lt;/span&gt; The Bell Jar &lt;span style="font-style: italic;"&gt;(1963)&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center;" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_6c5QyNQofxY/RlWmkLkj93I/AAAAAAAAAoU/RHRkZE5sKtU/s400/Koistinen.jpg" title="De Aki Kaurismäki" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5068140096187004786" border="0" /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight: bold; font-style: italic;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;A propósito de Koistinen, Kaurismäki y la esperanza&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;No es extraño que me fascinen los personajes trágicos, y lo mismo les pasará a muchos: cuánto más fácil resulta identificarse con los dejados de la mano de los dioses, cuánto más con su miseria, para regodearnos en la nuestra. Es el caso del protagonista de "&lt;a href="http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0458242/"&gt;Laitakaupungin valot&lt;/a&gt;" ("Lights in the Dusk", 2006), ese hombrecito gris que, con una impavidez inquietante, avanza por mucho que lo hagan caer.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Tampoco sorprende que Kaurismäki trate así a una de sus creaciones. Si hay algo que lo caracteriza son esos colores brillantes (pero sobrios) con que las rodea, como un &lt;span style="font-style: italic;"&gt;memento&lt;/span&gt; a la inversa, la dulzura que imprime en esos mundos lúgubres, dignos del más despiadado realismo (o del realismo y punto). Así, a Koistinen no se le conoce pasado (ni falta que le haría); vive el presente como lo que es, una falacia que se ratifica a sí misma con cada sentencia del reloj;  para él, el futuro es un monstruo, sí, pero prometedor.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Esa voluntad, ese "I will not die here", resuena, férreo y lleno de un aliento nuevo, por la acerina Helsinki. Y me deja un sabor agridulce en los oídos.&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/10136449-7158961062628959182?l=lamarcaenlapared.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://lamarcaenlapared.blogspot.com/feeds/7158961062628959182/comments/default' title='Comentarios de la entrada'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=10136449&amp;postID=7158961062628959182' title='0 Comentarios'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/10136449/posts/default/7158961062628959182'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/10136449/posts/default/7158961062628959182'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://lamarcaenlapared.blogspot.com/2007/05/el-hombre-que-crea-en-el-futuro.html' title='El hombre que creía en el futuro'/><author><name>Guillermina</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/16505019650973654992</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_6c5QyNQofxY/RlWmkLkj93I/AAAAAAAAAoU/RHRkZE5sKtU/s72-c/Koistinen.jpg' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10136449.post-6344198095985123906</id><published>2007-05-04T11:37:00.000-03:00</published><updated>2007-05-07T10:54:48.985-03:00</updated><title type='text'>Intermezzo</title><content type='html'>&lt;div style="text-align: right;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-style: italic;"&gt;"Can't remember the sound of my own name (...)"&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:85%;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-style: italic;"&gt;Bob Dylan, "Tomorrow Is a Long Time"&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: left;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Pero sí la voz de &lt;a href="http://www.eggdisk.com/files/362348_eoedw/Nick%20Drake%2C%20%27Come%20into%20the%20Garden%27.mp3"  target="_blank" title="En 'Family Tree'"&gt;Nick Drake&lt;/a&gt;.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;(Para qué escribir).&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/10136449-6344198095985123906?l=lamarcaenlapared.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://lamarcaenlapared.blogspot.com/feeds/6344198095985123906/comments/default' title='Comentarios de la entrada'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=10136449&amp;postID=6344198095985123906' title='0 Comentarios'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/10136449/posts/default/6344198095985123906'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/10136449/posts/default/6344198095985123906'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://lamarcaenlapared.blogspot.com/2007/05/intermezzo.html' title='Intermezzo'/><author><name>Guillermina</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/16505019650973654992</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10136449.post-2374637291799553232</id><published>2007-03-22T19:38:00.000-03:00</published><updated>2008-11-13T00:00:12.297-02:00</updated><title type='text'>Est-ce que quelqu'un a dit 'distopie' ?</title><content type='html'>&lt;div style="text-align: right;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-style: italic;"&gt;"It just so happened that a man here and a man there&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-style: italic;"&gt;loved some book.

I didn’t want the pain of repeated history to break your back. In my blanket of hope I walked with you, wolf warrior, and the council of tribes to what used to be the Department of War to discuss justice. When a people institute a bureaucratic department to serve justice, then be suspicious. False justice is not justified by massive structure, just as the sacred is not confinable to buildings constructed for the purpose of worship.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:130%;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(255, 255, 255);font-family:garamond;font-size:130%;"  &gt;_____&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style=";font-family:garamond;font-size:130%;"  &gt;I pray these words don’t obstruct the meaning I am searching to give you, a gift like love so you can approach that strange mind without going insane. So we can all walk with you, sober, our children empowered with the clothes of memory in which they are never hungry for love, or justice.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:130%;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(255, 255, 255);font-family:garamond;font-size:130%;"  &gt;_____&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style=";font-family:garamond;font-size:130%;"  &gt;An old Cherokee who prizes wisdom above the decisions rendered by departments of justice in this world told me this story. It isn’t Cherokee but a gift given to him from the people in the north. I know I carried this story for a reason, and now I understand I am to give it to you. A young man, about your age or mine, went camping with his dogs. It was just a few years ago, not long after the eruption of Mount St. Helens, when white ash covered the northern cities, an event predicting a turning of the worlds. I imagine October and bears fat with berries of the brilliant harvest, before the freezing breath of the north settles in and the moon is easier to reach by flight without planes. His journey was a journey toward the unknowable, and that night as he built a fire out of twigs and broken boughs he remembered the thousand white butterflies climbing toward the sun when he had camped there last summer.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:130%;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(255, 255, 255);font-family:garamond;font-size:130%;"  &gt;_____&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style=";font-family:garamond;font-size:130%;"  &gt;Dogs were his beloved companions in the land that had chosen him through the door of his mother. His mother continued to teach him well, and it was she who had reminded him that the sound of pumping oil wells might kill him, turn him toward money. So he and his dogs traveled out into the land that remembered everything, including butterflies, and the stories that were told when light flickered from grease.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:130%;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(255, 255, 255);font-family:garamond;font-size:130%;"  &gt;_____&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style=";font-family:garamond;font-size:130%;"  &gt;That night as he boiled water for coffee and peeled potatoes he saw a wolf walking toward camp on her hind legs. It had been generations since wolves had visited his people. The dogs were awed to see their ancient relatives and moved over to make room for them at the fire. The lead wolf motioned for her companions to come with her and they approached humbly, welcomed by the young man who had heard of such goings-on but the people had not been so blessed since the church had fought for their souls. He did not quite know the protocol, but knew the wolves as relatives and offered them coffee, store meat and fried potatoes which they relished in silence. He stoked the fire and sat quiet with them as the moon in the form of a knife for scaling fish came up and a light wind ruffled the flame.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:130%;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(255, 255, 255);font-family:garamond;font-size:130%;"  &gt;_____&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style=";font-family:garamond;font-size:130%;"  &gt;The soundlessness in which they communed is what I imagined when I talked with the sun yesterday. It is the current in the river of your spinal cord that carries memory from sacred places, the sound of a thousand butterflies taking flight in windlessness.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:130%;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(255, 255, 255);font-family:garamond;font-size:130%;"  &gt;_____&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style=";font-family:garamond;font-size:130%;"  &gt;He knew this meeting was unusual and she concurred, then told the story of how the world as they know it had changed and could no longer support the sacred purpose of life. Food was scarce, pups were being born deformed, and their migrations, which were in essence a ceremony for renewal, were restricted by fences. The world as all life on earth knew it would end, and there was still time in the circle of hope to turn back the destruction.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(255, 255, 255);font-family:garamond;font-size:130%;"  &gt;_____&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style=";font-family:garamond;font-size:130%;"  &gt;That’s why they had waited for him, called him here from the town a day away over the rolling hills, from his job constructing offices for the immigrants. They shared a smoke and he took the story into his blood, his bones, while the stars nodded their heads, while the dogs murmured their agreement. “We can’t stay long,” the wolf said. “We have others with whom to speak and we haven’t much time.” He packed the wolf people some food to take with them, some tobacco, and they prayed together for safety on this journey. As they left the first flakes of winter began falling and covered their tracks.

Porque vuelvo a esa noche de piano y violoncello en Constitución, donde se amuchaban las familias en un clima típico de ese interior latente, y me invade una sensación de pertenencia.

Las horas de la noche fresca se escurrían despacio, como con displicencia o parsimonia, por las hendijas del reloj que no llevaba ninguno. Porque eran dos: uno y ella. (Él y ella). Que de pronto hablaban de propaganda roja sin saberlo. Él había dicho Folino me contó que estuvo en Chile, conoció acá a unos periodistas chilenos y uno le dijo me parece que estás leyendo mucha propaganda roja, tendrías que ver cómo es todo en realidad, o algo parecido con otras palabras, pero casi idénticas.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;El bretel del corpiño era rojo. Mientras ella hablaba de su visión de Chile, él iba del bretel a los botones ámbar de su camisa, ahora rojos en su imaginación y al resplandor azul. Porque entonces todo fue un misterio: una revelación. (El código secreto). Que los convirtió en dos &lt;i style=""&gt;otros&lt;/i&gt;, en dos que no eran ellos sino personalidades prestadas y destinadas a desencontrarse o encontrarse a deshoras. Él había ido a buscar un trago y ella cuidaba el recoveco del balcón como el último baluarte de la defensa. Es que, por más que el uno volviera y ella esperara, ahora tenían la misión incolora, por precavida, de esquivarse.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;La noche se puso blanca. La pared seguía azul, el bretel y los botones, rojos, pero la atmósfera se deshizo en haces que no dejaban huella alguna. Porque de pronto supieron que no les quedaba más que la añoranza de una presencia interpolada: cuasiausencia. (El extrañamiento). Que venía impuesta o tal vez se imponían, y que posiblemente fuera a perseguirlos toda la vida. Ella había sacado muchas fotos antes, esa noche, mientras ambos escuchaban lo que alguna vez fue “música para tormentas”, y él le había dicho yo sé de fotografía, sé la teoría, sé la historia, y te podría nombrar ahora diez fotógrafos que admiro y por qué, pero la que saca buenas fotos sos vos.

Que" st="on"&gt;&lt;st1:personname productid="la OMC." st="on"&gt;la OMC.&lt;/st1:personname&gt; Menuda confianza. Que&lt;/st1:personname&gt; el TAS Portable (&lt;i style=""&gt;tasportable&lt;/i&gt;, en francés), que los glosarios, que las copias corregidas a mano y enviadas desde Suiza. Jamás había visto cosa semejante, y creo recordar que fue la tarde menos productiva y más paralizadora en mucho tiempo. Mi primera tarde como.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;span lang="ES"&gt;&lt;o:p&gt; &lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;span lang="ES"&gt;Debe hacer (ella dice “debe de”, como corresponde) más de tres años que la veo todos los días laborables, y a veces incluso los que no. Forjamos un criterio casi idéntico y ya no hace falta que levantemos la vista para concordar. (El escritorio único de la casa donde tanto nos costaba aislarnos del bullicio familiar se transformó de la noche a la mañana en una oficina luminosa con una isla donde pertenecemos por un rato). Ahora llego, “gerenta” yo de mentirita gracias al bautismo devoto de ella, y me encuentro todos los días con la jerga, cotidianeidad y vida interior de esos organismos internacionales donde sueño trabajar algún día y que ella me deja arañar a gusto y a mis anchas. Y me encargo. Y me apasiono. Y sigo aprendiendo y ella me sigue enseñando y a veces incluso me doy el lujo de enseñarle yo nimiedades a ella.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;span lang="ES"&gt;&lt;o:p&gt; &lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: center;" align="center"&gt;&lt;b style=""&gt;&lt;span lang="ES"&gt;&lt;o:p&gt; &lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/p&gt;    &lt;p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: center;" align="center"&gt;&lt;b style=""&gt;&lt;span style="font-variant: small-caps;" lang="ES"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: center;" align="center"&gt;&lt;b style=""&gt;&lt;span style="font-variant: small-caps;" lang="ES"&gt;II&lt;br /&gt;Márgara&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;span lang="ES"&gt;&lt;o:p&gt; &lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;span lang="ES"&gt;La vi por primera vez en una conferencia: daba una charla sobre la práctica profesional específica y ese tipo de cosas de las que suele hablar porque tiene la autoridad para hacerlo. Si pensé aquella vez en el concepto que tenía yo por entonces de “dinosaurio” (arrogancia de una era ida, soberbia esplendorosa y exagerada, exaltación casi inconsciente de la magnificencia propia) y huí casi despavorida, hoy corro en otro sentido y creo que los fósiles son dignos de veneración; y, como la gente cambia, ya no recuerdo qué pavadas decía años ha. Si sí, entonces me arrepiento en lo hondo como hija pródiga (sincera).&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;span lang="ES"&gt;&lt;o:p&gt; &lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;span lang="ES"&gt;Pasé por sus clases primero; pasé por su mano profesional teñidísima de tinta (de la buena) después; paso ahora por su mecenazgo espontáneo. Me encanta que sostenga el uso, que no guste de Borges, que se adueñe del feminismo, que se empecine en contra de la “metástasis”, que para mí use (con gotero) el “excelente” y el “vas aprendiendo” porque me significa un doble (triple, cuádruple) orgullo. No quepo en mis fronteras físicas cuando deposita en mí apenas una pizca de confianza o me aguijonea para que me zambulla en esos desafíos que sabe plantear nadie más que ella y le demuestre que siempre implica mucho más esfuerzo pero al final creo poder… ¿Cómo voy a hacer cuando me salga de debajo de su ala?&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;span lang="ES"&gt;&lt;o:p&gt; &lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;span lang="ES"&gt;&lt;o:p&gt; &lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: center;" align="center"&gt;&lt;b style=""&gt;&lt;span style="font-variant: small-caps;" lang="ES"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: center;" align="center"&gt;&lt;b style=""&gt;&lt;span style="font-variant: small-caps;" lang="ES"&gt;III&lt;br /&gt;Una traductora cualquiera&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: center;" align="center"&gt;&lt;b style=""&gt;&lt;span style="font-variant: small-caps;" lang="ES"&gt;&lt;o:p&gt; &lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;span lang="ES"&gt;Si hoy es mi día, no es por mí.

Sin embargo, compartieron entrañas de aquella y parte de la vida de ambas: ésa, la entrada en años, y la otra, que ya dejó de ser niña. Hablan de bueyes perdidos, de nietos-sobrinos crecidos, de padres-abuelos patriarcas cenicientos, de la madurez de los hijos-hermanos. Condescienden, rememoran, vuelven una vez y otra a lo de siempre: cavilaciones, preocupaciones, inquietud, concesión.

Puede ―pienso ahora― que sean nociones similares, cuando no idénticas. Quizá se trate de una especie de liviandad placentera, entre despreocupada y culposa, de a ratos; algo parecido a la satisfacción y, al mismo tiempo, el desasosiego; una gota dulce y redonda de certeza en un charco de expectativa blanca.

Sé que podría hacer el intento, y fracasaría sin más. Tal vez prefiera quedarme con esta exquisita falta de palabras —no por conformismo, sino en un extraño homenaje a Rohmer—, y robar lo que otros ya han escrito infinita e incomparablemente mejor.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(255, 255, 255);"&gt;____&lt;/span&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;&lt;blockquote  style="font-family:lucida grande;"&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(255, 255, 255);"&gt;____&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-style: italic; color: rgb(0, 0, 0);font-family:times new roman;font-size:130%;"  &gt;Porque El rayo verde, novela poco leída de mi maestro y tocayo, me contó a los nueve años que si mirábamos ponerse el sol en un horizonte marino, si el cielo es diáfano y si a último minuto no se cruza una vela de barco, una bandada de pájaros o una nubecita caprichosa, con el último segmento rojo hundiéndose en la línea del azul veremos surgir un instantáneo y prodigioso rayo verde.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(255, 255, 255); font-style: italic;font-family:times new roman;font-size:130%;"  &gt;____&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-style: italic; color: rgb(0, 0, 0);font-family:times new roman;font-size:130%;"  &gt;Yo vivía muy lejos del mar, y el sol de mi infancia se ponía entre alambrados, casas de ladrillo y sauces llorones. Subido a la loza de mi casa esperé ingenuamente el milagro del rayo verde, y sólo vi flacas antenas de radio; cuando veinte años después empecé a cruzar el Atlántico y el Pacífico muchos atardeceres me vieron acechar algo que nunca se realizó aunque las condiciones parecieran impecables, y como ocurre en la mal llamada madurez perdí la fe en el rayo verde y en el visionario que me lo había descrito y de alguna manera prometido.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(255, 255, 255); font-style: italic;font-family:times new roman;font-size:130%;"  &gt;____&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-style: italic; color: rgb(0, 0, 0);font-family:times new roman;font-size:130%;"  &gt;Ayer, desde el mirador del archiduque Luis Salvador, miré una vez más hundirse el sol en el mar. Un amigo mencionó el rayo verde, y me dolió por adelantado que los niños presentes lo esperaran con la misma ansiedad que yo lo había deseado en mi absurdo horizonte suburbano, ahora sería peor, ahora las condiciones estaban dadas y no habría rayo verde, los padres justificarían de cualquier manera el fiasco para consolar a los pequeños; la vida –así la llaman– marcaría otro punto en su camino hacia el conformismo. Del sol quedaba un último, frágil segmento anaranjado. Lo vimos desaparecer detrás del perfecto borde del mar, envuelto en el halo que aún duraría algunos minutos. Y entonces surgió el rayo verde, no era un rayo sino un fulgor, una chispa instantánea en un punto como de fusión alquímica, de solución heracliteana de elementos. Era una chispa intensamente verde, era un rayo verde aunque no fuera en rayo, era el rayo verde, era Julio Verne murmurándome al oído: “¿Lo viste al fin, gran tonto?”&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(255, 255, 255); font-style: italic;font-family:times new roman;font-size:130%;"  &gt;____&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-style: italic; color: rgb(0, 0, 0);font-family:times new roman;font-size:130%;"  &gt;Un poeta romántico hubiera escrito esto mucho mejor, don Gaspar o Shelley. Ellos vivían en un sueño diurno, y lo realizaban en sus poemas. La flor azul de Novalis, la urna griega de John Keats, el perfil de los dioses de Holderlin. Mi rayo verde se vuelve a la nada en el mismo instante en que lo digo; pero era él, era tan verde, era por fin mi rayo verde. De alguna manera supe ayer que mucho de lo que defiendo y que otros creen quimérico está ahí en un horizonte de tiempo futuro, y que otros ojos lo verán también un día.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/blockquote&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: right;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:85%;"&gt;Julio Cortázar, "Mi rayo verde"&lt;br /&gt;(fragmento; publicado en &lt;span style="font-style: italic;"&gt;Clarín &lt;/span&gt;en 1979)&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/10136449-115577093889340904?l=lamarcaenlapared.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://lamarcaenlapared.blogspot.com/feeds/115577093889340904/comments/default' title='Comentarios de la entrada'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=10136449&amp;postID=115577093889340904' title='0 Comentarios'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/10136449/posts/default/115577093889340904'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/10136449/posts/default/115577093889340904'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://lamarcaenlapared.blogspot.com/2006/08/en-un-horizonte-cercano.html' title='En un horizonte cercano'/><author><name>Guillermina</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/16505019650973654992</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10136449.post-115473630890868793</id><published>2006-08-04T21:03:00.000-03:00</published><updated>2006-08-04T21:30:19.426-03:00</updated><title type='text'>Whole lotta love</title><content type='html'>&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center;" src="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/2744/770/400/Lee.jpg" alt="Alone Again Or" border="0" /&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight: bold;"&gt;Arthur Lee&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;(1945-2006)&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:100%;"&gt;Y no, como que todavía no lo puedo creer...

Y él ya no la usaba para surcar la ruta precaria ni el ripio de aquellos diez o veinte kilómetros de llanura, que era linar, hogar de girasoles o maizal según la estación.

Con los asientos que hervían bajo el rayo del sol, hacía compañía a esta familia de raíces incipientes, descendientes de aquel anciano patriarca. Y no era de extrañar que el chiquillo dorado y mármol disfrutara a carcajadas de las mismas travesuras que había hecho su padre entre los barrotes de aquella Ford, como si le corriera en la sangre algún secreto inveterado, como si, después de todo, fuera él el que debiera comenzar de nuevo el ciclo rotundo, en tramos misterioso, que le tocaba en suerte por llevar el apellido de cuatro escasas letras.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;A más de trescientos kilómetros del parque, la hermana de aquel padre recién hecho supo que nada, por inconmensurable que fuese, podría sacarle esa sensación agridulce, perenne, de que todo ocurría ya ajeno a sus designios, como debía ser.&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/10136449-114269974117421892?l=lamarcaenlapared.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://lamarcaenlapared.blogspot.com/feeds/114269974117421892/comments/default' title='Comentarios de la entrada'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=10136449&amp;postID=114269974117421892' title='1 Comentarios'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/10136449/posts/default/114269974117421892'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/10136449/posts/default/114269974117421892'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://lamarcaenlapared.blogspot.com/2006/03/pehuaj-sud-y-parque-unzu.html' title='Pehuajó Sud y Parque Unzué'/><author><name>Guillermina</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/16505019650973654992</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>1</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10136449.post-114088773901519369</id><published>2006-02-25T14:16:00.000-03:00</published><updated>2006-02-25T18:22:32.110-03:00</updated><title type='text'>Dilemas de traductor novel</title><content type='html'>&lt;span style="font-weight: bold; font-style: italic;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;O acerca de mi postura frente a los best sellers para mujeres estadounidenses sin presente ni futuro&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: right;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-style: italic;"&gt;"But there is as much difference as there ever was between&lt;br /&gt;a good novel &lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-style: italic;"&gt;and a bad one: the bad is swept, with all the&lt;br /&gt;daubed canvases &lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-style: italic;"&gt;and spoiled marble, into some unvisited&lt;br /&gt;limbo or infinite rubbish-yard, &lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-style: italic;"&gt;beneath the back-windows&lt;br /&gt;of the world, and the good subsists &lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-style: italic;"&gt;and emits its light&lt;br /&gt;and stimulates our desire for perfection."&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt; &lt;div style="text-align: right;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:85%;"&gt;Henry James, "The Art of Fiction" (1884)&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Llego más o menos a la mitad de la novela en cuestión y me encuentro con que el caballero se está follando* a la doncella. No, eso no es lo (más) malo (de todo, porque hay mucho malo): lo peor, lo que da vergüenza ajena, y no de la pacata (porque nada tiene que ver el tema) sino de la otra, que es más parecida a la indignación cósmica que a la vergüenza, es la forma: la del lenguaje. (El fondo ya es insalvable). Que no se malentienda. Me han acusado de formalista, claro, y yo lo asumo sin culpas; así y todo, una cosa es la sugerencia, atractiva y eficaz (nunca en un mamarracho del tenor del que estoy traduciendo, valga la salvedad), el uso artesanal de la escritura, y otra la vulgar explicitud, más allá de que la cualidad de vulgar dependa del contexto, y éste sencillamente no se salva ni con el más benévolo de los jueces, se lo mire por donde se lo mire. "¿Y qué querías?", me preguntó, sabedor y desconfiado, mi otro jefe**. ¿Qué quería? No pido volver a traducir a Faulkner y dar mi propia versión de su complejidad (lo ansío, claro, pero no lo pido porque hace tiempo dejé de creer en los reyes y esas mentirillas de padres); no pido hacer justicia (la mía, bien subjetiva) a Hemingway ni a Chandler, ni mucho menos a Joyce. Pido, quizás, un poco menos de olor a bosta porque, así, la cosa se vuelve insalubre.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:85%;"&gt;*En honor a la editora (que quiere que use el "vosotros" y a mí que no me sale y quiero el "ustedes", quiero de querencia y no de voluntad).

Además, últimamente estuve rememorando más de la cuenta –extraño; mis recuerdos no suelen perdurar demasiado–: de aquella vez en que mi prima, la otra imagen que me devuelve un espejo imaginario, que acaba de cumplir esos problemáticos quince años, lloraba tanto detrás del chupete un día gris de mi propio cumpleaños que me aguó el paseo especial en mi homenaje; de los autitos piluqui de mi hermano, de cuánto adoraba sus combinaciones chillonas de colores y que mi hermano me los prestara con semejante desinterés cuando jugábamos a la ciudad, copando el comedor; de Chernobyl y Atucha; de Prometeo, de Sísifo, de las Parcas; de los pasillos recónditos del Lenguas a los que volveré este año (si las palabras no me traicionan ese día decisivo), donde todo tiene color invernal y exhuma secretos ya añejos; de cuánto habré querido, de aquí a unos cuantos años, haber hecho cosas que no hice.

De que el tiempo existe no cabe duda, y prueba de ello es el hecho de que se nos escurre: el tiempo es, pero no está (o está y se diluye a un tiempo). Parece mentira, pensé, quizás –muy probablemente– en voz alta, que sea enero (y así también ya se haya ido). De nuevo los planes, las expectativas, la estructura impecable de estantes por llenar, que al final, casi vacía, no dará sino pena. “Te habías puesto todos esos plazos”, me había recordado alguien más. Y esa siesta, días después, mientras miraba a la fuerza el ajetreo del café para escapar de la perdición, se me ocurrió que tal vez funcionara así, de a uno por vez: de a fragmentos.&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/10136449-113864799367721984?l=lamarcaenlapared.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://lamarcaenlapared.blogspot.com/feeds/113864799367721984/comments/default' title='Comentarios de la entrada'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=10136449&amp;postID=113864799367721984' title='0 Comentarios'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/10136449/posts/default/113864799367721984'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/10136449/posts/default/113864799367721984'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://lamarcaenlapared.blogspot.com/2006/01/fecha-de-entrega.html' title='Fecha de entrega'/><author><name>Guillermina</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/16505019650973654992</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10136449.post-113660837794294331</id><published>2006-01-07T01:31:00.000-03:00</published><updated>2006-01-07T01:32:57.943-03:00</updated><title type='text'>Arreglando papeles</title><content type='html'>&lt;div style="text-align: right;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-style: italic;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;“Despierta el alma, vigente en dormido cuerpo,&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-style: italic;"&gt;son los ensueños.

Y no es un problema: en todo caso, es el dilema (la vigilia). Volví estas fiestas a la casa de mi infancia y temprana adolescencia, al igual que todos los años; volví, si se quiere, geográficamente. Sin embargo, hace tiempo que no deja de perturbarme la idea de que quizás no sólo me traslade en el espacio. Ha sabido invadirme, como hiedra sigilosa, la sospecha de que además de un bolso repleto de inútiles menesteres y regalos varios para el enanosobrino llevo conmigo otra carga, una especie de disfraz caluroso que alguna vez usé pero hoy guardo en el fondo de un placard (lo conservo: no quisiera deshacerme de él por completo). Aun así, a pesar de las tribulaciones, el olor a tierra mojada, el balbuceo de los picaflores, el laurel de jardín con aroma a dulce, los cielos infinitos y aplastantes me aseguran, me juran, me prometen, cada vez que vuelvo, que pertenezco. Entonces: ¿soy yo la que vuelve? ¿O es, en parte o completamente, el recuerdo borroso de mí que se eterniza a sí mismo y me perpetúa contra mi voluntad?

Con lo que me gusta la Bailiff… Pero está bien acompañado en el bolso, claro que sí. &lt;/i&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:georgia;"&gt; —¡Hola, Sergio! No te había visto… ¡¿Vos sos Isadora?! ¡Jamás te hubiera reconocido por la foto! Hola, Marcela. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;i style="font-family: georgia;"&gt;Tenía la secreta esperanza de que no vinieras. &lt;/i&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:georgia;"&gt;—Entramos en bulliciosa &lt;/span&gt;&lt;i style="font-family: georgia;"&gt;troupe&lt;/i&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:georgia;"&gt;. Mi humor se esforzaba por parecer afable, cosa que cuesta, oh, cómo cuesta, los viernes a la tarde. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;i style="font-family: georgia;"&gt;Que no esté lleno de gente, por favor. &lt;/i&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:georgia;"&gt;Ya ha llegado una cantidad considerable de nombres: algunos algo más familiares que otros; otros, casi completamente desconocidos. Tras la ronda obligada de besos, me siento. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;i style="font-family: georgia;"&gt;Justo al lado mío tenías que sentarte… &lt;/i&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:georgia;"&gt;Entablo conversación (también obligada, vaya) con la que vino y yo hubiera preferido que no viniera. La que hubiera preferido, más aun, que encontrara otra ubicación. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:georgia;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-style: italic;"&gt;Esta apatía hacia la socialización forzada. &lt;/span&gt;Hablamos de su título reciente, de su PH, de su DVD y su televisor y su mesa giratoria para el DVD y el televisor. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;i style="font-family: georgia;"&gt;Poné cara de nada, Guillermina, pero no la dejes con la palabra en la boca, que la que se incomoda sos vos, al fin y al cabo. &lt;/i&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:georgia;"&gt;"Hablamos", claro, es una forma de decir. Conversación, lo que no prospera. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;i style="font-family: georgia;"&gt;Y el español que me acusa. Como para no. Y no, todavía no, esperá un poquito más, que está bien, ahí en el bolso, con la Bailiff. &lt;/i&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:georgia;"&gt;De pronto llega otro nombre: me rescata sin saberlo. Se dan un beso, yo también saludo. Y hasta aquí llego. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-style: italic;font-family:georgia;" &gt;Exeunt &lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:georgia;"&gt;Guillermina y su voluntad. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;i style="font-family: georgia;"&gt;Qué bien. No me enojo si “hablás” con ella, para nada. Alguien me espera y yo que no puedo esperar. &lt;/i&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:georgia;"&gt; —Imaginate, retórica de la ciencia, escritura en las disciplinas, técnicas de... &lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:georgia;"&gt; —&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:georgia;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-style: italic;"&gt;Bla, bla, bla... &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:georgia;"&gt;Al cabo de cinco, siete minutos, sigo sentada ahí, mirando alternadamente &lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:georgia;"&gt;el reloj y la ventana&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:georgia;"&gt;, los auriculares y las caras; el ruido de voces y risotadas va &lt;/span&gt;&lt;i style="font-family: georgia;"&gt;in crescendo&lt;/i&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:georgia;"&gt;. &lt;span style="font-style: italic;"&gt;Hace calor.&lt;/span&gt; Estiro las piernas, el pensamiento se me escapa con constancia envidiable hacia el contenido del bolso; cuánto más a gusto estaría si al menos… Las prohibiciones a veces son autoimpuestas. Pero, ¿siempre tienen sentido? &lt;/span&gt;&lt;i style="font-family: georgia;"&gt;Esto tenía que empezar a las 15. &lt;/i&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:georgia;"&gt;No, no puedo esperar más. En un acto solapado de enunciación de principios, meto la mano en el bolso, saco el libro y lo abro donde había dejado el señalador. "Apeado, me abracé con inseguridad a mi pequeña maleta de cartón liada con cuerdas. El tren resopló y de un empellón se perdió en la curva ...". &lt;span style="font-style: italic;"&gt;Ustedes sigan hablando.

Ella llegaba aquel día, cargando la valija añeja, a la intersección con el camino de ripio, donde las obras anunciadas en vistosos carteles de chapa habían sabido dejar una marisma de arena, restos rotos y montículos de tierra inutilizable que ahora daba al paisaje cierto aire desértico de abandono: sutil, atrayente, de melancolía sosegada. Iba decidida a esperar, desparramada sobre los trastos –que diríanse tremendamente particulares, porque además de valija arrastraba consigo los surcos informes de aquello que había visto atropellarla–, la camioneta anaranjada, brillosa, que la llevaría a algún pueblo vecino, o adonde el volante quisiera.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Eran cerca de las seis y media de la tarde, hora en que el día se torna impresionista. En el límite con el horizonte, ahí donde se confunden en espejismo calor, pavimento y agua, y la ruta se tuerce y emerge de la hondura, titilaban dos faros que hacían juego de luces.&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/10136449-112506166622728592?l=lamarcaenlapared.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://lamarcaenlapared.blogspot.com/feeds/112506166622728592/comments/default' title='Comentarios de la entrada'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=10136449&amp;postID=112506166622728592' title='0 Comentarios'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/10136449/posts/default/112506166622728592'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/10136449/posts/default/112506166622728592'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://lamarcaenlapared.blogspot.com/2005/08/cruce.html' title='Cruce'/><author><name>Guillermina</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/16505019650973654992</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10136449.post-112424890560222280</id><published>2005-08-17T12:19:00.001-03:00</published><updated>2005-08-19T01:03:10.993-03:00</updated><title type='text'>Rêves</title><content type='html'>&lt;div style="text-align: right;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-style: italic;font-size:100%;" &gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;"Anywhere, any room/&lt;br /&gt;windows I've been crawling through"&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-style: italic;font-size:100%;" &gt;&lt;span style="font-size:85%;"&gt;Lilium, &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-style: italic;font-size:100%;" &gt;&lt;span style="font-size:85%;"&gt;"Sense and Grief"*&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-style: italic;font-size:100%;" &gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-style: italic;font-size:85%;" &gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: left;"&gt;Insomnio las palabras.&lt;br /&gt;Las palabras: acto forma.&lt;br /&gt;Trasluz, transpiro.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Un traje de saliva.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style=";font-family:georgia;font-size:85%;"  &gt;*Letra de Daniel McMahon.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/10136449-112424890560222280?l=lamarcaenlapared.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://lamarcaenlapared.blogspot.com/feeds/112424890560222280/comments/default' title='Comentarios de la entrada'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=10136449&amp;postID=112424890560222280' title='0 Comentarios'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/10136449/posts/default/112424890560222280'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/10136449/posts/default/112424890560222280'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://lamarcaenlapared.blogspot.com/2005/08/rves_17.html' title='Rêves'/><author><name>Guillermina</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/16505019650973654992</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10136449.post-112338229145692609</id><published>2005-08-06T23:36:00.000-03:00</published><updated>2005-08-07T01:12:55.073-03:00</updated><title type='text'>La historia de esta vida</title><content type='html'>&lt;div style="TEXT-ALIGN: right"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="FONT-STYLE: italic"&gt;"[S]ome are born great, some achieve&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="FONT-STYLE: italic"&gt;greatness, and some have greatness&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="FONT-STYLE: italic"&gt;thrust upon them."&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="TEXT-ALIGN: right"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:85%;"&gt;&lt;span style="FONT-STYLE: italic"&gt;W.

Así empieza "&lt;a href="http://www.harviekrumpet.com/" target="_blank"&gt;Harvie Krumpet&lt;/a&gt;" (Melodrama Pictures, 2003), el pequeño y a la vez gigante cortometraje de animación de Adam Elliot, narrado por Geoffrey Rush, que cuenta en plastilina y veintipico de minutos la vida del personaje que le da nombre. Que le da nombre después de cambiárselo: porque Harvie se cambia de nombre, se muda a otro continente, se hace nudista y vegetariano y, &lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/2744/770/1600/harvie%20in%20grey2.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="FLOAT: left; MARGIN: 18px 10px 15px 0px; WIDTH: 162px; CURSOR: pointer; HEIGHT: 166px" height="276" alt="Harvek Milos Krumpetski" src="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/2744/770/320/harvie%20in%20grey2.jpg" width="209" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;aun así, parece no poder escapar a su destino. O a su mala suerte, según dicen algunos críticos por ahí...&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Y, sin embargo, Harvie se ríe. (No siempre, vale aclarar, ya que su –¿condenada?– vida apenas consta de una serie de verdades o &lt;em&gt;fakts&lt;/em&gt;, como ha sabido enseñarle su madre, que las más de las veces no hacen sino cachetearlo con saña y mandarlo de vuelta a la casilla número 1). Y una se ríe, melancólicamente, con él (nunca &lt;em&gt;de&lt;/em&gt; él: de todos los personajes queribles con los que me he topado de casualidad, este polaco se las ha ingeniado para robarme toda la empatía) y cruza los dedos para que por fin descubra que este paseo finito y azaroso le depara algo mejor que lo que encuentra. Aunque eso nunca parezca suceder.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="TEXT-ALIGN: justify"&gt;&lt;div style="TEXT-ALIGN: justify"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="TEXT-ALIGN: justify"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="TEXT-ALIGN: justify"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div style="TEXT-ALIGN: justify"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="TEXT-ALIGN: justify"&gt;Perdón, ¿dije "empatía"? Estuve a punto de corregirme pero creo que debería reafirmarlo. ¿Qué es lo que hace que una sienta &lt;em&gt;empatía&lt;/em&gt; hacia este hombrecito? Su creador &lt;a href="http://www.harviekrumpet.com/hpresskit.pdf" target="_blank"&gt;sentenció alguna vez&lt;/a&gt; que Harvie no es el más afortunado de todos (y cuánta razón tiene y qué bien lo dijo, porque lo describió como un &lt;em&gt;underdog&lt;/em&gt;), pero... ¿quién no lo es, al fin y al cabo? ¿Acaso eso que llaman vida –eso que juega apuestas con la diosa más caprichosa de todas, eso que revolea a Harvie de un lado para el otro y vuelve a dejarlo en el mismo lugar, eso que consiste meramente en una recopilación numerada de verdades para memorizar– no se comporta, en mayor o menor medida, de la misma manera con cada uno de nosotros, irrisorios mortales?&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div style="TEXT-ALIGN: justify"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="TEXT-ALIGN: justify"&gt;Al parecer, como bien recordó el gran Horacio a mi Harvie, a pesar de la inclemente fortuna y las arbitrariedades de este juego, la consigna más sabia sigue siendo &lt;em&gt;carpe diem&lt;/em&gt;.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/10136449-112338229145692609?l=lamarcaenlapared.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://lamarcaenlapared.blogspot.com/feeds/112338229145692609/comments/default' title='Comentarios de la entrada'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=10136449&amp;postID=112338229145692609' title='0 Comentarios'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/10136449/posts/default/112338229145692609'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/10136449/posts/default/112338229145692609'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://lamarcaenlapared.blogspot.com/2005/08/la-historia-de-esta-vida.html' title='La historia de esta vida'/><author><name>Guillermina</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/16505019650973654992</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10136449.post-112284740994140751</id><published>2005-07-31T20:41:00.000-03:00</published><updated>2005-07-31T20:42:08.386-03:00</updated><title type='text'>Digresiones de domingo</title><content type='html'>&lt;img style="margin: 0pt 0pt 10px 10px; float: right; cursor: pointer;" src="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/2744/770/320/doorwaydevils3.jpg" alt="My Sunday demons" border="0" /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: right;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-style: italic;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;"That music you play, I'm not saying it's bad,&lt;br /&gt;it just seems terribly sad."&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:85%;"&gt;Neil Hannon, "The Happy Goth"&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:100%;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt; &lt;div style="text-align: left;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:100%;"&gt;El pijama no puede tener olor a comida, de ninguna manera. Cae desmayado sobre la colcha (la cama está destendida, revuelta, violentada): el pantalón por un lado, la parte de arriba por el otro. Había guardado los escarpines en uno de los cajones de la mesa de luz la noche anterior, pensando: "mucha humedad para lana".&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Ayer cayó una pelota de tenis en el techo del supermercado. (Hace unas semanas habían estado recuperando los puntitos verdefosforescentes que, en los días nublados, hacían pensar en un yuyo extraño, ignoto, de esos que crecen irremediablemente en los techos). El ruido fue inconfundible. La pelota sigue ahí. Tal vez viniera a acompañar a esa otra de la que nadie se ha percatado, escondida bajo el alero metálico.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Aquí el café nunca sale lo suficientemente caliente. Esta máquina deforme fue mal concebida: no se supone que el café se tome tibio. El azúcar no se derrite (va siendo hora de cambiarla por estevia) ni se distingue ese humito tan tentador; es vital que la taza despida aroma. Y que dure mientras no haya nada más digno por lo que abrir la boca.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Los domingos me son intrascendentes.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-style: italic;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:85%;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:100%;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt; &lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/10136449-112284740994140751?l=lamarcaenlapared.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/10136449/posts/default/112284740994140751'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/10136449/posts/default/112284740994140751'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://lamarcaenlapared.blogspot.com/2005/07/digresiones-de-domingo.html' title='Digresiones de domingo'/><author><name>Guillermina</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/16505019650973654992</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10136449.post-112218104010766129</id><published>2005-07-24T01:57:00.000-03:00</published><updated>2005-07-24T02:30:11.293-03:00</updated><title type='text'>Monte Helicon</title><content type='html'>&lt;div style="text-align: right;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-style: italic;"&gt;"Her name's Calliope."&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:85%;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-style: italic;"&gt;Erasmus Fry, 6 de mayo de 1986&lt;br /&gt;(Neil Gaiman, "The Sandman")&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;Se sentó en el borde del sillón, tomó el cuaderno todo ajado que solía acompañarlo en sus rondas y escribió, con esa letra tan prolija, tan particular de su puño, pero no sin prisa:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-style: italic;font-family:times new roman;" &gt;He was used to that woman,&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-style: italic;font-family:times new roman;" &gt;Who would dress all in white—&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-style: italic;font-family:times new roman;" &gt;A long gown made of cotton&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-style: italic;font-family:times new roman;" &gt;Meant to counter the night&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-style: italic;font-family:times new roman;" &gt;    And she went to the woods&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-style: italic;font-family:times new roman;" &gt;    And she mused in the forest &lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-style: italic;font-family:times new roman;" &gt;Never spoke, never listened,&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-style: italic;font-family:times new roman;" &gt;She would just pass him by—&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-style: italic;font-family:times new roman;" &gt;Her silhouette, oh, so gentle,&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-style: italic;font-family:times new roman;" &gt;An ephemeral cry&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-style: italic;font-family:times new roman;" &gt;And she went to the woods&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-style: italic;font-family:times new roman;" &gt;And she took to the forest &lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-style: italic;font-family:times new roman;" &gt;He recorded her longing&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-style: italic;font-family:times new roman;" &gt;Like the fittest of scribes—&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-style: italic;font-family:times new roman;" &gt;But his innermost craving&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-style: italic;font-family:times new roman;" &gt;He did not dare transcribe&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-style: italic;font-family:times new roman;" &gt;        And she went to the woods&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-style: italic;font-family:times new roman;" &gt;        And she strayed in the forest&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-style: italic;font-family:times new roman;" &gt;        Then she never came back&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Luego, tachó y reescribió.

Hora pico si las hay: atiborrado de gente. Se cruza el tren que va a Catedral con el que viene. Encuentro una islita para pararme, mirando hacia las vías. Me dispongo al viaje mecánico, sumergida en Alaska. Sin embargo, quedo trabada en la mirada de ese chico, joven, castaño, que tiene la expresión fija en mi cara, o en mis pupilas. Nos miramos, ¿cuánto?, quince segundos, no más; él sonríe, como con resignación, no sé por qué (¿cómo habría de saberlo?), y la sonrisa que tira a la derecha se le pierde en la comisura de los labios, aunque es completamente perceptible. Casi sin darme cuenta, me encojo de hombros, y hago una mueca sutil, quizás de resignación, también, mientras sostengo la mirada: ahora no podría precisarlo, porque lo único que recuerdo, como grabados en la retina, son los ojos esos que me escrutaban, fijo, sostenido, con curiosidad, compasión, vaya a saber una con qué. Y arrancan los trenes y finalmente cortan el hilo invisible. Yo, claro, llevo la sonrisa resignada, sin bajar la vista de donde la había posado, como por fuerza de un magnetismo, esos segundos eternos, hasta la estación en la que me bajo. Quién sabe dónde se ha bajado él, o qué ha pensado de mi mirada o durante cuánto tiempo.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;*** &lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;¿Por qué no nos miramos así, my dear you, antes de que se precipitara este ahora?... &lt;/p&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/10136449-111689655931678806?l=lamarcaenlapared.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://lamarcaenlapared.blogspot.com/feeds/111689655931678806/comments/default' title='Comentarios de la entrada'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=10136449&amp;postID=111689655931678806' title='0 Comentarios'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/10136449/posts/default/111689655931678806'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/10136449/posts/default/111689655931678806'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://lamarcaenlapared.blogspot.com/2005/05/esas-miradas-que-dicen-tanto.html' title='Esas miradas que dicen tanto'/><author><name>Guillermina</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/16505019650973654992</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10136449.post-111652423092488270</id><published>2005-05-19T14:40:00.000-03:00</published><updated>2005-05-19T14:42:33.696-03:00</updated><title type='text'>La ¿prisa? de la última vez</title><content type='html'>&lt;div align="right"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;em&gt;"Yes, you're falling on the ground,/&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="right"&gt;&lt;em&gt;And you know you're going down,/&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="right"&gt;&lt;em&gt;For the last time."&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div align="right"&gt;&lt;em&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:85%;"&gt;Lou Reed, "Going Down"&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Primero está la posibilidad del llanto.

Llora y el cuerpo se encorva, si bien no hay cóndor que la haga enfrentar el piso.

Me gusta que me haga reír a carcajadas cuando nadie se ríe, y que me estampe esa mirada cómplice de tanto en tanto. Me gusta que se acomode los anteojos con marco de carey, que se afloje la corbata poco elegante (como todo él) y pasada de moda. Me gusta que se exceda en el verbo, en el tono, en la medida. Me gusta que gesticule, me gusta que se explaye, me gusta que divague; que argumente, teorice, justifique, descarte, ridiculice a gusto. Me gusta que no se resigne aun cuando le dicen, con toda seguridad, que no encontrará el baño de caballeros en el segundo piso. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Este tipo me gusta.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Me gusta sentirme su única espectadora.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p align="left"&gt; &lt;/p&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/10136449-111102412561202269?l=lamarcaenlapared.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://lamarcaenlapared.blogspot.com/feeds/111102412561202269/comments/default' title='Comentarios de la entrada'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=10136449&amp;postID=111102412561202269' title='0 Comentarios'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/10136449/posts/default/111102412561202269'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/10136449/posts/default/111102412561202269'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://lamarcaenlapared.blogspot.com/2005/03/primeras-impresiones.html' title='Primeras impresiones'/><author><name>Guillermina</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/16505019650973654992</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10136449.post-111049874659585521</id><published>2005-03-11T23:31:00.000-03:00</published><updated>2005-03-11T23:33:24.186-03:00</updated><title type='text'>Suspensivamente</title><content type='html'>&lt;div align="right"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;[&lt;em&gt;Esta vez no hay cita, pero suena&lt;br /&gt;de fondo "&lt;a href="http://www.asklyrics.com/display/Handsome_Family/Stalled_Lyrics/67.htm" title="Sólo para leer la letra...
