The return of The Last of the Line and an apocalyptic series: what you can't miss this week

The week that begins, with Jordi Garrigós

Some of the things we hope not to miss in the next seven days

I will celebrate the return to the stage of El Último de la Fila Listening to their best album. The reunion of Manolo García and Quimi Portet, one of the greatest duos in the history of pop music in this country, is a joy for those of us who had lost hope of seeing them live after they split up in 1996. I haven't yet said which album is the best... Obviously,Enemies of others' property, his second album. Released in 1986, it features such iconic songs asInsurrection,I can't get used to itandSilver planes.Well returned!

I will visit an exhibition I have pending at the CCCB. I'm talking, of course, aboutChris Ware: Drawing is Thinking, which reviews the career of this brilliant comic book creator, who has experimented and innovated with the genre's language and narrative in an exceptional way. It seems like another success for Jordi Costa, the center's exhibitions manager and the person who has opened the door wide open to the CCCB for comics. It's recommended reading the interview Xavi Serra conducted in Ware in this newspaper before arriving at the museum's doors.

I will read The new graphic novel by Zerocalcare, the Italian cartoonist and screenwriter who moves so well between the first person and social criticism.It will be all for me, translated into Spanish by Reservoir Books, the author reckons with the relationship he's had with his father throughout his life and confronts a painful past without sugarcoating reality. A new example of the Italian's genius, which he hones with precision when tackling autofiction.

The week that ends, with Thaïs Gutiérrez Vinyets

Notes on what we have seen, heard, tasted and, ultimately, experienced in the last seven days

I have discovered a Makan Makan, a small, homey restaurant in the heart of Raval, serves Indonesian cuisine and authentic dishes to help you discover the flavors of the Asian country, but not only that; you'll also find dishes from other countries in the area. The place is small and very cozy, and the service is friendly and helpful. They'll help you with any questions you may have. It's worth listening to recommendations and trying the dishes they suggest.

I have celebrated that he has returned The Last of Us, one of the few apocalyptic series I like and that has truly moved me. It also fits well with the moments experienced this week. In this second season, we meet the same protagonists, but five years have passed, so everyone's personal circumstances have changed, although above all, the virus that infects humans and poses an ever-increasing threat to survivors has changed.

I have bought a book I'm really looking forward to reading, Here, but not quite (Saldonar), written by journalist Lillian Ross, one of the magazine's most iconic signaturesNew Yorker. In her book, she recounts her love story—extramarital but never secret—with the magazine's legendary editor, William Shawn. Published after Shawn's death, it recounts not only her story but also that of the magazine, those years of American journalism that featured such interesting figures as Hannah Arendt, J.D. Salinger, and William Faulkner.

I couldn't stop thinking about the death of the bookseller Montserrat Úbeda, the soul of the Ona bookstore on Gran de Gràcia, where I have bought so many books and where she so often advised me and my children on which copy we should take. Many things have been said about her these days, and her great work as a cultural figure and language activist has been praised. We will miss her greatly when we next enter the small shop on Gran de Gràcia street.
