Ya terminamos mi #taller de #narrativa en español de #UnderTheVolcano de 2025. ¡Qué buen grupo! 😎 Me voy muy contento y deseando que muchas personas podamos leer muy pronto sus #libros terminados.
En el #video, mi #lectura de cierre: un fragmento de "El #Mahabharata" en versión de Jean-Claude #Carrière y #PeterBrook que traduje al vuelo. 🌟
Muchas gracias a Magda Bogin, Wendy Hesketh y todo el equipo de Under The Volcano. ¡Nos vemos en 2026!
