Description

---

En 1970 y 1971 y en dos viajes que he recogido en un par de libros, recorr gran parte de Am rica del Sur. Trat a gentes diversas, visit lugares ex ticos, com comidas extra as y en general fue toda una experiencia. Pero al final llegu a la conclusi n a la que alude la cita del poeta romano Horacio incluida al comienzo de este libro: "sobre quienes cruzan los mares, cambian los cielos; pero su alma no cambia". Muchos habremos viajado con esa esperanza, la de mudar de manera de ser, pero la habremos visto defraudada; porque en palabras de otro cl sico "nada hay nuevo bajo el sol".

When I was 13 years old, one of my compositions won a national high school literary award and again when I was 14. Later I studied Physics at the University of Santiago and then I was there an Assistant Professor of Mathematics; later I taught Physics in a Brazilian college. I spent two summers working at a labor camp in England. I was a full-time translator for Nestle in Switzerland. I won three short story prizes and one of my fiction novels was a finalist in a chicano literary contest. Now I publish my books through Amazon.
