Acaba de fallecer, a los 71 años de edad, el escritor español Javier Marías. Desde 2008 cupaba el sillón R de la @RAEinforma y publicó novelas como Los enamoramientos, Tu rostro mañana, Berta Isla o Tomás Nevinson. Descanse en paz.

@8bitnortherner It’s slightly misleading of me to call it an app. You need a Discord account which is basically a social media platform. It’s quite fiddly. I ended up watching a how to video. I’ve run out of free goes. I also did the wicker man by Nevinson.

'Rough Sea.' (1917) Bouts of rheumatic fever and shell-shock shortened Christopher Nevinson's time at the Front in WW1. A reviewer heralded Nevinson as the first British artist to give 'really profound and pictorial expression to the emotions aroused by war.'
