For the single parents that struggle working doubles, taxing their muscles so their children can comfortably cuddle and sleep at night.

Forrest Gump cambia el banco por una playa de Chipiona, y la caja de bombones por una de fresones. La metáfora sigue funcionando. Nunca sabes lo que te vas a encontrar. Aunque los fresones pueden parecer los mimos, a nadie le saben igual, ni el desfile de homenajes, empezando por Juan Ramón Jiménez, sonará igual a quien se adentre en La efervescencia de la aspirina, en Todas las veces que no he podido ir a Cádiz, en El nombre exacto de las fosas, y en La vida cotidiana. Como decía Yasunari Kawabata, en Lo bello y lo triste, uno no puede sentarse a esperar el pasado; el tiempo y los ...
