Carrère Award to the great villains
The new promotion of the Princess of Asturias Awards has left a few hits: local idols, examples of self-improvement, intellectuals who connect with the anxieties of our time, scientists who represent the success of research in the contemporary world.
Five of the winners take the floor at the Princess of Asturias Awards ceremony,
presided over by the Royal family (the Kings, Queen Sofía, Princess Leonor and her sister Sofía) at the Campoamor Theater in Oviedo.

The Princess of Asturias Award for Communication and Humanities for literature made a very author's speech: courteous at first, hesitant in the rim, and moral at the end.
First he read a few words about the literature in Spanish that has mattered in his life:
Cervantes.
Borges, Bioy Casares, Cortázar, Bolaño, Vila-Matas, Cercas, Juan Vásquez.
«And my dear cousin Rosa Montero»
. And then he told his story: “On September 8, the trial for the attacks began in Paris, also in Paris, on November 13, 2015, on the terraces and in the concert hall of the Bataclan theater. These attacks caused 131 deaths. [...] The assassins were killed or they exploded themselves. [...] Throughout these testimonies we discover something else surprising. The stories of shipwrecks, of catastrophes, of the generalized for those who can, usually reveal the worst of the human being. Cowardice, each to his own, cannibalism. Here, none of that. We cannot imagine that a collective fiction of nobility and greatness of spirit has been created, and yet practically only examples of mutual help, solidarity, often heroic gestures have been described to us ”.It was the perfect message for awards like these.
