El traje nuevo del emperador como cuento, junto al “Aún aprendo” de Goya y otros, es uno de mis referentes intelectuales en cuanto a cómo afrontar la vida. No siendo fan de los libros de autoayuda, me gusta recostarme al abrigo de las ideas que ciertas obras evocan, es mi modo de autoayudarme, pues. En […]
