I was on tour with Richmond Publishing in Mexico. I visited Mexico City, Puebla, Veracruz and Monterrey. It was great being there for the Day of the Dead celebrations. Here are some photos of the ‘ofrendas’ (offerings) that were on display on the night of November 1^st at the UNAM. This year, the ‘ofrendas’ were dedicated to the writer Octavio Paz.

The bookshops in Mexico City are amazing, almost as good as those in Buenos Aires. Here’s a picture of me at one of the most impressive.
