Surely you know, you have read, they will have recommended booksand he himself will also have seen, passing through the crystals, beautiful books that invite you to cross the shelf. This time the mayor of Madridwho surely studied and studies, who notices beautiful things and even uses or touches them, he has behaved like an illiterateunable to understand the importance of a library, that is to say, what a person who has written books, who is also largely dedicated to the city in which he rules, means in the world. He commands provisionally, it must be said, because artists are destined to live longerin the memory of the peoples, that those who have won elections, have held a position in which they did part of what they said they would do and then have sometimes left with no trace other than that of their shadow.
It is unfortunate that, in addition to having that future of oblivionthe mayor of Madrid is going to leave this mark without a name that has been his disdain for Almudena Grandes and by his own corporation, to which he owes himself as mayor of all that he should be. Apart from be rude in his stampede, letting an act that he should preside over not have his civil protection, he has been rude in explaining his absence. He said that the King had called him to a dinner that began when he was already Joaquin Sabina he would have removed his hat in tribute to the author who lost the city and the letters. Smeared with lies the excuses are worse; In addition, he dragged other municipal officials who should have been at the Spanish Theater for shame of charge. The mayor dragged the town hall into a disrepute, in my opinion mean, because he was not obeying a stomach or head upset, but your real winwhich led him to say, when Almudena was awarded the distinction that was now being awarded, that he was not so sure that this Madrilenian so dear (and so despised by him) did not deserve the consideration that had made him sign a decree in his name.

All of this is disgraceful, ideological, mean, careless. In the embarrassment of these days in Spain, the climatological embarrassment and the political embarrassment, this gesture by Almeida, let’s give him his own name, leaves out of the game the very history of the town hall that was Enrique Tierno Galvan and places it in the atrabiliary municipality of the worst municipalities of the dictatorship. Now is the time for this shame felt by those of us who live in Madrid to have the contrition of this man who laughs like it’s all a joke in which not even proper names, that of Almudena, for example, receive from him the primordial substance of respect, which is the civil hug who deserve those who leave fired by a crowd with which he must have been confused because the town hall belongs to everyone.
Now, in this case, he belongs to nobodyand Almudena goes down in history as someone who belongs to everyone, to the City Council as well, but, alas, not to the mayor for the time being illiterate.
