POETRY UNDER ARM
At Vieira, denied to make money, the millions they had them in poetry. In the first teapots and readings, the mother was pointing to his son literary paths (how ugly sounds of female offspring).
Marujita incomplete time was a communist. He soon left the dialectic of the sickle and hammer to engage targets on which it has been a pioneer.
His brother was thrown out of the Institute of Manizales to graduate to Jesus Christ as the first communist. By age 8, she entered the diaspora Maruja and emigrated with his family in search of sleep Bogota.
As in the conservative White Vieira family practiced the religion of tolerance is not strange in her womb was born what became the charismatic leader of the Communist Party, who was physically more activist side of Opus Dei than revolutionary. Vieira himself would recognize that "Goths are decent, tolerant, respectful of the ideas of others." Biography was his father with some adjectives. He himself was a cool daddy who raised their offspring with lyrics by the Beatles, not Marx.
White not only mother but his grandmother was in Colonel Aureliano Buendía had enriched the imagination of the child. The dowry of two great women included a unique capacity for forgiveness that Maruja considered "essential for resolving situations of violence. " This was understood

And for that chance-one of the names that atheists will have God-made thing, the couple already guessed would say the lyrics of a bolero, be found later in a cultural event in Cali. The rest did the carpentry of love that went into the couple's daughter, Ana Mercedes, his colleague, partner and Siamese twin. If you see one of the two alone in a room, within seconds you will see the cufflinks. Are always supportive, as the semicolon. Vivas
