Eduardo Mendoza, "Princess ofce letters" and his readers in OVie: "There is no better job than writing, yes"

The Barcelona writer organized reading groups at the Palacio de Calatrava with his companion and his professional vision.

Eduardo Mendoza, winner of the "Princess of Asturias" award for literature, delighted the dedicated audience at Calatrava in Oviedo yesterday with a masterful exercise in humor and wit.With the presence of representatives of the Reading Animation Group of the Public Libraries of Asturias and the clubs of several autonomous communities, the meeting allowed us to get to know the writer from Barcelona better and better, as he skipped the final protocol to appear: "Nothing makes me happier than meeting my readers and seeing so many who love me. I love you!"

It was a happy ending, it was an exciting ending, it was an unforgettable end to an “intimate” evening, although more than 2,000 seats were filled, full of confidence and commitment.First, praise: “Book clubs are the antidote to loneliness.”We meet to talk about books, but what we’re really talking about is ourselves.”

Regarding the role of female characters in his writing, Mendoza states that "I understand women very well. But they are not in most of my stories.

And he added, reassuringly: "I'm not too worried because there are great writers with wonderful female characters. Fiction is actually one of the least misogynistic fields that exists.

His relationship with the animal of literature is "very strange. I never want to find one like me. Comedy letters" and "Mauricio" "He is close.

The question "Any news from Gurban" was inevitable.Is a stranger still needed to understand us as a community?"Yes. TRANSITION INDICATE WAHATETECTEKT, without judgment. I don't know why we all wrote so much with readers, because we all want to see this world:

He also spoke about his creative process:“I have to ask those who are with me, those who suffer from me, this is the best work, and I am the best work.

He recalled his time studying law and his work as a translator: 'I studied because it looked simple and you have to find a life.But there is something interesting about legal literature: it covers all human life from birth to death.And Sugarcane taught me to love words.I always have my dogs on the table;"Sometimes I read to make someone like reading stories."

I believe that Medodoza will try to start a book "like the first one".Now I try to deal with the previous books.

The meeting had an element of humor."That suits me," he said."I don't know how to write any other way. For a long time the novel became serious and humor was pushed into the corner. When I wrote 'The Mystery of the Haunted Crypt' and 'No News from the Grub,' the ground was very little tilled. Humor is as respected as tragedy.

Regarding revision and political correctness, he was calm: «You cannot ask what is in the past different from what has been.I am against any kind of involvement.If the reader is happy with a book, you throw it away and read another one.No one tells us what to read.

He admitted, however, that there are things he would not write in the same way today: "I am a child of my time and I always behave well."

Cuando una lectora le preguntó qué opinaba sobre la idea, extendida entre muchos jóvenes y subrayada por algunos influencers, de que leer no es importante, Mendoza respondió: «Yo creo que se puede vivir sin leer. Hay gente que no lee y es estupenda, y hay gente que lee y es idiota. Pero de todas las cosas que se pueden hacer en la vida, leer es de las mejores. Nos entretiene, nos une y nos ayuda a entendernos».
