Chorche@Purnas en o Zierzo points out a delicious detail of Victor Alexandre’s hagiographic account of Catalan neo-fascist leader Carod-Rovira’s tête-á-tête with Basque terrorists last January: the Spanish version of The Carod Case is subtitled “details of the meeting with ETA and their consequences”, while the Catalan edition caters to the needs of the clinically paranoid with the tag “50 days of the political lynching of a nation”. Yeah!
