The author of "punk girl" suffering from a serious lung infection
A few days ago I heard about the poor showing at the Festival Fogwill Jan Montevideo, which surprisingly, Fogwill never showed lack of creativity in his novels and stories. I remember the night we spend the night reading "Punk Girl", I felt an emotional blow, now I feel the blow to learn of his death so sudden. Here I note posting they report on his death.
At 70 years, died yesterday morning in the writer and sociologist Rodolfo Fogwill, who was hospitalized for several days by a severe lung infection, the result of his addiction to cigarettes, as reported Buenos Aires various media.
Author of such novels as "The analyzed texts" and "A pale love story" as well as books of short stories and poetry, Fogwill also worked as director of advertising and marketing. In 1980, for his story "punk girl" won a major award that allowed him to quit his job and devote himself to writing. He received a Guggenheim Fellowship in 2003 and the National Book Award the following year.
