“Alguén pretende que a novela galega teña un marcado celme rural, un arrecendo ás terras remexidas polo legón, ou polas gueifas do arado, á braveza de toxo, á estrume. ¿E por qué non ha poder sere delicada como unha fror de pazo señoril?”

Some people pretend that the Galician novel should have a marked rural imprint, a smell to the earth overturned by the hoe or by the mouldboard of the plough, to the wilderness of the gorse, to fertiliser. But, why shouln't it be delicate as a flower from a noble manor?
