ROSA MONTERO, THE COUNTRY - Last - 02/15/2005
This is one of the most romantic love stories that can provide real life: the lo
ng, and rather scurfy adulterous relationship between Prince Charles and Camilla
. However, most people usually choose Diana as a prototype romantic, because she
was beautiful and because it was based on a conventional role, the girl married
to that fool. About this stereotype, invented all kinds of personal virtues whi
ch adorn it, without taking into account that, by all indications, Princess of W
ales was an insufferable and self-centered neurotic book. In addition to a monum
ental uneducated, but it seems that they are almost all in the monarchy. I write
all this and I know that the letter will reach some readers angry in defense of
Diana (which I have always been the case criticized), and is there a romance, t
o be called the absolutist, you need to create myths neat to be grasped, as if,
out of that full and inhuman perfection is unattainable beauty. But it happens t
hat real life is just the opposite of the perfect. Real life is much more like C
amilla and Charles eared, two ugly undeniably full of contradictions and miserie
s. He's a metepatas, a conservative obsolescence of poor light and a little cowa
rd, or so it would be left of its propensity to bully and that double and nothin
g noble life that has always been. As for her, say it is not Einstein. And yet,
some modest but should have solid knowledge, knowledge that can not be measured
in IQ tests but that he has kept the love of the prince for thirty years. A huge
feat. For added realism, hela there without surgery, without stretching the ski
ns of the face, her breasts taken down to the waist, assuming Olympic aging with
aplomb. Go temper that has this Camila. You see, I see them well, ugly, nasty a
nd liars, but building a pretty emotional story of perseverance, and almost move
me. To me that is the true beauty of life: a flash of light and greatness among
the dusty pettiness of things. O, which is the same: a couple of simpletons kno
w love.
