José Joaquín, Q.E.P.D.
Sentimos las pérdidas de todas las víctimas del desastre de Spanair esta semana y extendemos nuestras condolencias a todos sus familiares y amigos sobrevivientes. A nosotros nos tocó especialmente cerca, porque hemos perdido a un amigo y nuevo vecino cofundador de nuestra flamante comunidad de propietarios en Carboneras. José Joaquín Pérez de Obanos Liso, una persona muy querida en su país de Navarra y de gran relevancia en la agricultura de toda España, había compartido con nosotros en una comida en Carboneras sólo siete días antes de abordar el fatídico avión para unas merecidas vacaciones en Canarias.

- Geoffrey Fox's short story collection Welcome to My Contri (1988, enlarged e-book 2010) was described by The New York Times Book Review as a "short and impressive work" in which "Mr. Fox [...] has created a memorable set of players who, while not natural antagonists (they often share the same dreams and goals), are still somehow bent on confrontation. Watching their sometimes vicious, often darkly humorous interactions leaves us thoroughly wrung out and aware that we are in the presence of a formidable new writer". Novels: A Gift for the Sultan (2010), Rabble! (2022) His articles, op-eds and book reviews have appeared in The Nation, The New York Times, the Village Voice and other publications. Since 2008, Fox has been living with his partner, architect Susana Torre, on the edge of the Mediterranean in the village of Carboneras in Andalusia, Spain, where his short stories (in Spanish) under the pen name "Baltasar Lotroyo" ("el otro yo" = alter ego in Spanish) have appeared in anthologies and online publications.
