The writer Eloy Tizón presents this Tuesday, October 8, at 8:00 p.m., his last book 'Slightly wounded: thirty years of reading memory' in the library of the Ramón Alonso Luzzy Cultural Center, within the program 'Read, think, imagine'.

The act is the first of the new collaboration of 'Read, think, imagine' with the bookshop The Magic Mountain that, under the title of 'A mountain of books' will make possible the presentation of works within the program of the municipal center.

'Slightly wounded: thirty years of reading memory' (Foam Pages, 2019) How does a writer read?

In what aspects is it fixed?

What chasms do you see?

How do fictions catch and modify our eyes?

All these questions, and many others, appear in this literary essay, articulated around eight thematic constellations, in which creators and books dialogue with each other, complement, discuss or collide, following the author's maxim according to which: 'Diamond cut diamond '.

Classic and postmodern narrators, consecrated and cursed, portraits of writers and their ghosts, theories and controversies, myths and curiosities, parade through these pages that constitute a literary feast for gourmets, a book of books, which collects a sweep of thirty years of memory reader, to configure a kind of map to orient us or to get lost.

An intellectual autobiography of the 'lightly wounded' Eloy Tizón himself drawn from his inexhaustible love of literature.
