This week the Spanish author Fernando J. López del Oso is visiting BYU. I met Fernando last weekend on the way home from the airport. He is smart and articulate and while I haven't read his work yet, I'm looking forward to it.
Fernando gave a talk yesterday called "Los ojos del hombre" in which he discussed the relationship between science in literature in general and in his own work. He is clearly well-read and has thought things through. He will be speaking again tomorrow at 9am in B092 in the JFSB about his novel Yeti (2011). I look forward to it.
