EXTRAVÍO
Alejandro Jodorowsky

Un ciego, con su bastón blanco, en medio del desierto, llora sin poder encontrar su camino porque no hay obstáculos.

Alejandro Jodorowsky was born in Chile in 1929. He is a verstaile artist: writer, poet, painter, screenwriter, musician, therapist, psychomagical... He writes his books in spanish and in french. In the sixty, he founded Grupo Pánico with writers Fernando Arrabal and Roland Topor (also a comic book artista). En 1953 he left Chile to live in París, México and New York. He lives now in Paris, where he works on his art and teaches tarot. 
"Extravío" (meaning "loss") is a brilliant very short story about how much we need obstacles in live and overcome them.
