EL MUNDO ES UN LIBRO QUE AÚN NO HEMOS LEÍDO

MI LIBERTAD NO TIENE PRECIO: TIENE TU NOMBRE

POETA ES AQUEL QUE SE COMPORTA IGUAL ANTE UN REY QUE ANTE UN MENDIGO

TODO ES LITERATURA; DEPENDE DE COMO TE LO CUENTEN

LA MENTE ES COMO UN PARACAIDAS, SÓLO SIRVE SI SE ABRE

Proud to be called a witch


Rico is the perfect example of her own thesis; a short glance at her autobiography shows her life has been anything but normal. She won her first literature prize at the age of five in a Coca-Cola competition, whilst her first text was published when she was eleven. ‘Reading and writing always came so naturally to me,’ she adds. ‘I come from this magical tradition of oral storytelling. When I was small my grandmother would always be telling me stories and fairytales.’ Rico continued to stack up the literature prizes as she completed studies in law, international relations and theatre studies. German bestselling author Daniel Kehlmann is also a prominent fan of her latest novel. ‘It’s my best work so far,’ says Eugenia, who has injected twenty years of writing experience into it, hoping that it would be a pleasure to read as well as a work to stir up reflection. ‘The novel is only the tip of the iceberg for me. The reader has to find out what lies beyond it themself.’

¿Sabes que yo de pequeñas, en lugar de princesa yo quería ser bruja? Y sí, doy fe, con Eugenia la vida es de todo menos normal. Ya estoy deseando un nuevo y mágico encuentro.
