Suddenly, everybody blames the Devil for all our ills and misfortunes. It’s/He’s/She’s on the top trending topic list.

En esta época todos los años se repite un ritual en La Plata, ciudad que me adoptó desde mis días de estudiante universitaria, la ciudad de las diagonales hoy pintadas de violeta por los jacarandás, tan bien homenajeados por María Elena Walsh. ¿Cuál es ese ritual?
