About meI am into: Spanish Philology, Linguistics, Translations, Mythology, Jungian Pyschology, Tarot Card Collection, Reading/Writing, Watching movies based on books, Cooking Cuban food, Keeping track of technology, Collecting gadgets, and overall Bibliophilia.

About my libraryIt is just a mirror of my philological de-formation and the extensive interests in many topics I have shown through my entire life so far. Basically, I have a predilection for fiction, and particularly in the fiction and non-fiction prose developed following the type of Aestheticism according to the French Decadent (the equivalent European movements) and Spanish American Modernism fin-de-siecle literary/artistic trends.
