BY NESTOR CUARTERO
He was a man of few words, yet when he wrote, the words overflowed and overwhelmed the reader. They were always on-point, not quite subtle, suggestive and corrective, like the critic that he was.
We, his readers, have long been missing his writing, his often acerbic remarks, his witty, funny asides, especially during conversations.
