Today is a special day: This is the first time I have interviewed a writer from the Erasmus generation in the Basque Country.

And what? Are we as nice, as kind, as simple and as feminine as they say?

Now you will tell me that the writer thinks nothing but writing, that the rest escapes you.

No, brother, if the ego escapes us, we would only be able to think about writing, but in the meantime, we have to feed the ego!

Is bertsolarism also part of that promotional strategy?

Of course, and because I had few attempts, I got pregnant, you know, to be different. I just need to be black and zuberotarra.

But bertsolari and writer, as the two activities are so far away...

They balance. The plaza and the house, risk and security, improvisation and calm, company and loneliness...

They are affectively remote: some want the audience of others, others want the intellectual recognition of some.

I found more envy among writers... In addition, what do you do in search of the intellectual declaration? I'm a woman. Very few exiles get...

Listen, lately in the editorial Elkar you are all wives, young and beautiful.

And the writers. Remember? Susan, all men, serious, hypercritical. Above all, since Eider Rodriguez became part of the camp of the hottest young people.

We had Erasmus, but, for example, now come those from the Interrail generation.

I'll love reading Goiatz Labandibar's work. In recent months, I have had little time to read and write.

I should not have asked you anything about private life, but as you have raised the issue...

I live in a 60-square-meter house. My private life is narrow.

Narrow, I don't know, but Basque Brangelina doesn't have to be frivolous.

My partner doesn't look like Brad Pitt!

No bad thing we don't have a pink press.

Ours is worse: Let's disguise serious criticism gossip! Who doesn't need some Salvame?
