“Have you been to Miami?” the Argentines ask. “Do you know Nueva York?” They pronounce it “Jork” in that harsh Argentine way. They look disappointed when I say, no, never been to Miami and yes, I know New York but I don’t like it because it is too big ... Read more >

A Local Encounter that Changed my Perspective - The Falklands in Focus

Tue, 16 Apr 2013 | By harrystapleton | Views [309] | Scholarship Entry

It is to my shame that upon arrival in Buenos Aires in 2009 I knew and cared quite little about the Falklands/Malvinas conflict. To my mind it had been a short war over a tiny archipelago in the South Atlantic of little or no importance, in which British ... Read more >

Catching a Moment - Ad infinitum

Sun, 14 Apr 2013 | By booksandbackpacks | Views [1311] | Comments [1] | Scholarship Entry

The earth turns on her pivot with an ancient ease. Her fingers outstretched, she traces an outline, sharp and jagged as the teeth of a shark. In one unceremonious moment, land is severed from sky, night from day, past from present. The world yawns below ... Read more >

The black dog had remarkably kept pace with the horse as she galloped along the dirt road, racing fast in the way that an animal runs eagerly towards home. I had never flown so fast before. The ranch zoomed close, a white structure on a hill of green ... Read more >
