I live in this city. I have spent my working life writing, editing, and publishing books, and I can tell you what that steel drop says to a child walking past it on the way to school: the city will take from you, and the city has stopped giving.

La regla es que si algo podría llevar amianto lo más probable es que lo lleve, y las compañías que te venden ese amianto no lo comprobarán y en su lugar esperarán a que un comprador lo descubra y denuncie.
