LEON LEGAZCUE. I feel like Juana de America. I feel like Juana de Ibarbourou locked up in her farm on October 8 in La Union, like Emily Dickenson, like Oscar Wilde's Selfish Giant, locked up like Ruben Dario in the Ivory Tower or like the Count of Monte Cristo in a palace cell real.

LEON LEGAZCUE. I feel like Juana de America.

I feel like Juana de Ibarbourou locked up in her farm on October 8 in La Union, like Emily Dickenson, like Oscar Wilde's Selfish Giant, locked up like Ruben Dario in the Ivory Tower or like the Count of Monte Cristo in a palace cell real.

This is how the days go by, the hours go by as slow as hot oil and the days as fast as a south summer wind.

I was shocked that Amazon called me "the renowned author" when my books in Uruguay were not sold but even disappeared from the National Library and sank into the mud. It is true that two universities, one in Chile, that I do not remember its name I'll remember, Ah, Educares. and another from Pazcuaro in Mexico studied, in addition to those from Brazil, my red book Master of Love in the Education master's degrees, along with Pablo Freire with whom I was in Sao Paulo, with Helder Camara, with Leonardo Boff, with Fray Betto, with Gustavo Gutierrez, Ricardo Velez, Ernesto Araujo and the minister whose name I don't remember who I replaced at the last moment, improvising, on the proscenium. But 50 years have passed, I put it in numbers because there are too many. That theology has already been forgotten. .

and I believed that Uruguay was the navel of the world. And now it turns out that millions of people around the world have read me and some Uruguayans want to meet me. That makes me somewhat afraid, to commit myself. Not out of ego, but out of fear.

This week I fainted twice, it wasn't from pressure, it was 13-7, but from the heat and the grrr sound of a red car with a disheveled old hairdresser from the film Back from the Future, a cocktail that confused me and collapse'-

"and the famous writer Amilcar Legazcue de León from a country in South America that is almost never mentioned." Amazon, this is too crazy for my sensitivity.
