[La historia hay que leerla] como si se estuviera en reuniones familiares en la cocina al
amor de los fogones. Ahí es frecuente que la tradición desfi gure la historia para hacer
leyendas; que la historia recobre su sentido popular tan olvidado; que las diosas del
séptimo arte aparezcan vivitas y coleando y que en las noches de plenilunio se tiemble
con la sombra del padre sin cabeza.
