Se llama clásicos a los libros que constituyen una riqueza para quien los ha leído y amado, pero que constituyen una riqueza no menor para quien se reserva la suerte de leerlos por primera vez en las mejores condiciones para saborearlos (…) Un clásico es un libro que nunca termina de decir lo que tiene que decir.
Italo Calvino
