WITTICISMS

Letters to the editor are a traditional means of expression through which anyone can express their thoughts publicly. However, they have become obsolete due to digitalisation, although this has not been the case for Enrique Stuyck Romá. His 20 years of dedication to these letters earned him the Guinness World Record for the largest number of letters published in a single year in a single newspaper. Following the success of the Spanish editions of his books — and considering the close ties between the author and the Anglo-Saxon world — a compilation of letters translated into English is now available to the public. In this volume, 250 “witticisms” selected from the 8,600 letters written by the author and published in different newspapers have been compiled. In these pages the reader can find the reflection of a transparent and true man who every day writes his “witticisms” using humour and irony with great intelligence.
