Antonio de la Torre: "I feel pressure when it comes to managing my career well and not burning myself"

  • Love, friendship and jealousy are some of the feelings that Carlota Casiraghi - president of The philosophical encounters of Monaco - and Professor Robert Maggiori analyze in her book Archipelago of passions, and about those who will speak at the Hay Festival of Segovia on September 21 .
