George Steiner decía que toda crítica es un agradecimiento y que hay que dar las gracias a las obras y al esfuerzo que han supuesto a su creador.
Así que, lo primero de lo primero, es agradecer a Gaby Sambuccetti por su nuevo libro The Good, The Bad & The poet (El bueno, el malo y el poeta), en el cual nuestra poeta, al hablar de ella y su visión de la realidad, hace posible que el lector se conecte consigo mismo y con todos los demás.
Eso se agradece y se agradece mucho.
Por ese agradecimiento, voy a confesarles algo: Estaba leyendo el poema de Gaby “Mi Maradona”, cuando de pronto por el Whatsaap recibí la noticia de la muerte de Diego Armando Maradona.
