– Why La Graciosa?
– I always saw that small island from Mirador del Rio.
– And you think it’s quite romantic to stay there for a whole week?
– No, it’s rather bizarre. People think it’s quiet there, but, no!
– So it is what?
– Windy, very windy. And the wind can be very loud. Sand storms, you know!
– Good food?
– Fish. Fish all around you. And the name sounds like pizza.
– Gosh. Sylt seems to be far more thrilling, in comparison.
– No, no, La Graciosa is a kind of survival training. No divertimentos.
– In the way, horror vacui can be the biggest thrill of all?
– That’s only part of the game. I have one cd, and an old discman.
– Tell me!
– It’s my desert island disc, Van Morrison’s Astral Weeks.
