Carlos Fuentes (1928-2012)

Mexican writer, diplomat and social critic Carlos Fuentes died last week and I want to share with you a couple of videos showing two interviews with him.

In the first one you will hear him speak in Spanish but the subtitles are in English and I think they are very good so it will be very good practice for English reading and vocabulary learning. AARP VIVA's interview highlights his sense of humor and his love of family.




There are no subtitles in the second video. Carlos Fuentes was very fluent at English as you will appreciate in this interview; it took place in February this year, 2012.  Let´s see how much you can understand.
