"Letters mingle souls, for thus, friends absent speak." That was the judgment of John Donne (a contemporary of one William Shakespeare) in the late 1500s. Today in Spain, that is the job of
la oficina de correos (see it?). Or, is it the job of the
teléfono móvil? Mobile phones are everywhere taking post offices out of the soul-mingling business. [2017]
