Carlos de Cires/Leopoldo Alas
Last Wednesday my friend Carlos de Cires (with whom I worked occasionally at the Spanish gay magazine ZERO, especially for their travel supplement DESTINO, of which he was the director) passed away quite suddenly, just when it looked like he'd bounced back from a pneumonia. This is a photo the Spanish writer Leopoldo Alas (some of whose work I've translated into English for various magazines) took of us back in 2006.

This morning, Leopoldo passed away, after six weeks of hospitalization, which again began with a pneumonia.
