Fernando Olivera: El rapto.- TEXT FROM THE NOVEL The goldfinch by Donna Tartt (...) One night we were in San Antonio, and I was having a bit of a melt-down, wanting my own room, you know, my dog, my own bed, and Daddy lifted me up on the fairgrounds and told me to look at the moon. When "you feel homesick", he said, just look up. Because the moon is the same wherever you go". So after he died, and I had to go to Aunt Bess -I mean, even now, in the city, when I see a full moon, it's like he's telling me not to look back or feel sad about things, that home is wherever I am. She kissed me on the nose. Or where you are, puppy. The center of my earth is you". The goldfinch Donna Tartt 4441 English edition

Del Bosque makes history National coach earns a record 39th win at helm of world's top-ranked team.

Spain's routine 3-0 win over Venezuela on Tuesday was not one that will linger in the national memory in the same way as last year's tighter but more famous victory in Johannesburg, but it will be remembered as the one that made Vicente del Bosque the most successful coach in La Roja's history. Goals from David Villa - who took his tally for Spain to 47 - Pedro and Xabi Alonso gave the mustachioed mastermind a 39th win at the helm of the national side, one more than his predecessor, Luis Aragonés, in ten fewer matches. Spain has only lost four games - and curiously tied just one - under Del Bosque, two of them friendlies. The Manchegan has an 88 percentage win record compared with the Madrileño's 70 percent.
