The book on Evil and Suffering that Corey Dyck, Fabio Malfara and myself have edited is finally out!

Such a 1970s painting. John Geoffrey Caruthers Little (Canadian, 1928 - 2024). Les sacs à ordures, Rue Bagot, Quebec (1975, oil on canvas).

This book is almost out! I am looking forward to having it in my hands! It was great to work with Corey and Fabio on this. 😊

Melancolía.

Para mí esta es una gran obra de arte. La vi hace meses. Al inicio me pareció "sólo" una buena peli, con el paso del tiempo no me la he podido sacar de la mente. La vida de Hirayama me parece sabia y profunda. Quiero saber más de él, conocerlo. La escena final es la vida resumida.
