Madrid. Spain. At the end of August we received a nice notification from the court that on September 16th the police and the locksmith would come to the space to proceed with the eviction.

Stuart Christie was born in Glasgow in 1946, too late to enlist in the International Brigades and go off and fight alongside the Spanish republicans in the 1936-39 war.

There is no ordinary existence that doesn’t secretly contain a treasure. It most often escapes us when the key to the dreams with which our childhood plays gets lost.
