Author, Satirist, and Artist L.E. Vega

Here Comes L.E. Vega ...

History is made by men, but they do not make it in their heads. 

The ideas that are born in their consciousness play an insignificant part 

in the march of events. History is dominated and determined by 

the tool and the production-by the force of economic conditions. 

Capitalism has made socialism, and the laws made by capitalism 

for the protection of property are responsible for anarchism. 

No one can tell what form the social organization may take in the future.

Excerpt -- Joseph Conrad, "The Secret Agent", A Novel

"As I drive away onto the main road, I catch a glimpse of some houses 

I could not see in a previous season, when the trees had leaves 

on them, which covered the view.  Now, the bare trees have pulled 

the curtain back, so I can see beyond them.  It is like the time when 

people take the furniture out of the house or garage to clean, and one 

can see everything. What’s more is that as an author, I really can see 

everything now, my much more mellow skill gushing out with fire 

hydrant force, too, and it is a breakthrough point to reach as a writer, 

to pull back the curtain, and view your story, 

and your technique, and it takes years 

to achieve such significant fruition".    

Excerpt -- L.E. Vega, "Ms. Quixote Goes Country", A Novel

Jonathan claimed that he wrote Gulliver's Travels "to vex the world rather than divert it". Since her Freshman year in college, L.E. Vega knew that someday she would, in the satirical style of Swift, write about an imaginary island. Prasea, came to life for the first time in the novel "Ms. Quixote Goes Country", and stands as a symbol of the island of Puerto Rico. In her novel "Ms. Quixote Goes Country", L.E. Vega presents Puero Rico as an island known as Prasea, one of The Treading Islands, and below is a map showing the islands which form a rocking chair.

Earlier, a Joseph Conrad excerpt appears in this blog. Joseph Conrad is considered one of the greatest authors, and even more so because he wrote in English, which was not his native language (he was from Poland).

Fuck all those American marionettes and brainwashed people of all races,who shun L.E. Vega in the same way that Joseph Conrad was shunned because his native language wasn't English!

Albeit L.E. Vega's native language is English, yet many Americans who consciously or subconsciously are "aligned" with the psychopathic schemes do not wish to treat L.E. Vega as an equal, in the same manner that many British refused to treat Joseph Conrad as someone of the same or higher stature.

In the sick U.S.A., "division" rules. L.E. Vega has made some healthy choices, unlike many Americans who have been for a long time led by very toxic people in government and in communities, and the result is today's anarchy.

Those toxic individuals brainwashed Americans to reject the Indians and their wisdom, although the Indians warned them about eating too much sugar, etc. They ignored the Indians, which is what toxic people in power wanted, in order to profit not only from a deceiving medical and pharmaceutical industry, but also from a very corrupted financial system that must be pulled out like a weed (Indians did not need banks, and thus threatened the greedy bankers' agendas). If Americans had listened to Indians, or to people like Freddie Prinze, Sr. who really care about the U.S.A. and our world, (Freddie Prinze, Sr. was murdered because he knew insider info about the JFK assassination), or to L.E. Vega, Americans today, would stand on a healthier and steadier platform. 

"Dalí poses as Don Quixote", digital painting by L.E. Vega

"Neither I’m I expecting anything but the mere satisfaction of 

adhering to my commitment through completion.  Like Beethoven, 

like Prinze, like Michel Dufrėnoy in Jules Vernes’ novel “1994”, 

I held the bouquet of violets that drained my last vingt cent franc 

all over town and country through a ruthless winter blizzard, thorns 

and all scraping my frostbitten skin. If anything, if nothing else, 

I should be respected and applauded as a survivor who 

with the warmth of my heart, rose above the spread of the 

manifestations of cold cartels.  Mine is true courage, to feel, 

to observe, to rise above disambiguation , to survive the insatiate

band of and mad vultures, to maintain a healthy stance, making 

my own footprints, minus Lolita Lebrón’s disobedience".

Excerpt -- L.E. Vega, "Ms. Quixote Goes Country", A Novel

Novels and Children Book(s) Written by L.E. Vega

"Ms. Quixote Goes Country -- Raised on the Marxist Frontier" The truthful and eccentric novel "Ms. Quixote Goes Country - Raised on the Marxist Frontier" is a testimony inspired by the tragic death of Freddie Prinze, Sr. The main character in the novel, city slicker Joanna Lee Colinas, nicknamed Joalee, hikes to battle current unhealthy real life American Gulag windmills. One of L.E. Vega's recurring literary themes, also present in "Ms. Quixote Goes Country", is that instead of stagnating in the Anti-American or Anti-This or Anti-That mind frame, the answer is to find peaceful alternatives in order to correct the deficiencies. Installing new alternatives places Joalee ahead of her time, and yet in a lonely place and category. In a satirical fashion, Joalee dons on a Quixotesque knightess armour, a symbol of her gentle female strength. Joalee prepares to combat being weighed down by today's escalating enigmas and human division. The novel takes the shape of an endearing cubist journal with tinges of an imaginary island, Pracee, a symbol for the tropical island of Puerto Rico, and still a place that seems socially warped. With echoes of growing up in a politically punctured family, L.E. Vega's novel illustrates in humorous Quixotesque fashion the acquisitive agenda concocted by Joalee's stepfather in order to impose on her Mr. Freddie Prinze Sr.’s calvary. Joalee, though, is heartened by Mr. Freddie Prinze, Sr. himself, who comically appears to her as a Knight Blueprint while she washes some bird poop off her Ms. Quixote armour at the country creek. Like a Jean Jacques Rousseau wading through a Gauguin painting, "Ms. Quixote Goes Country - Raised on the Marxist Frontier" presents sketches of the still existing national uncertainty where Joalee reckons that she and Mr. Prinze, Sr. converge. visit Ms. Quixote on Facebook.

"La Perla, Puerto Rico", watercolor painting by L.E. Vega

"La Perla is Prasea’s taboo barrio, Prasea’s hidden slum, a “Lost World”.  

Prasea’s La Perla is “America’s Lost World” that sits on a slope 

off of the historic grounds of Prasea’s most valuable real estate".  

***

The Illegal Carros Públicos line originated because La Perla is 

such a dangerous neighborhood, that no buses, no taxis, 

no public means of transportation of any kind go there, 

with the exception of some taxis that are willing to transport 

passengers to the lost slum no later than 4:00 PM, 

charging extra money for having to go out of their standard route.  

No one in El Capitolio or in politics mentions La Perla, either, 

even though El Capitolio, the island’s most important building, 

where legislative processes supposedly take place, is right across 

the street from La Perla.  When you take the scenic drive that goes 

by El Capitolio, with the ostentatious Capitol building architecture 

exhibiting tall marble columns on one side and the ocean view 

of the immense Atlantic over the cliffs on the other side, you do not 

see La Perla, the lost slum world on the inclining cliff, which remains 

hidden from the rest of the planet, no different than a “Lost World”.  

***

The parents of Renato Raymundo, the new baby born at The Rum

 Factory, get petrified one day, finding that their baby, mistaking 

a rat for a cat, was getting friendly with it.  Neighbors who care

 about the baby attribute the baby’s safety to the huge “azabache”

 that he wears around his neck, a little bigger than an average 

pacifier, which, when he offered it to the rat, the rat took it as a 

threatening gesture to be knocked on.

Excerpts -- L.E. Vega, "Entitlement Day", A Novel

"Entitlement Day -- La Perla, America's Lost World" In "Entitlement Day", a satirical novel by L.E. Vega, Prasea, one of the Treading Islands, suddenly earns the title of The Entitlement Paradise. Elbita Cerrillos is filled with towering frustration upon missing the plane to the United States mainland on Entitlement Day, commonly referred to as E.D., and one of the most significant days in the history of the United States. On E.D., all airports in and outside the U.S. are jammed. Once the word gets out that Prasea is the "Island of Entitlement", where entitlement works so well, there is only one politically correct destination left to fly to: Prasea. Along with the newcomers from the contiguous United States, who eventually wondered if they got what they bargained for on Entitlement Day, Elbita learns to fasten herself like a pearl in its oyster. Elbita, a native of La Perla, along with many Americans, survives the lessons of adapting both to the unknown, and to the neglect indicative of living in a politically lost world. La Perla's hamlet surfaces as the main protagonist in the novel, the center from which Praseans, gypsy dwellers, American novitiates from all walks of life, gargoyles nestled in La Perla's catacombs, and prehistoric creatures, all learn to somehow come together, making not the start they had in mind, granted one heck of an earnest takeoff.

"Sugar Don Quixote", water color painting by L.E. Vega

"According to Paquita’s tale handed down to her, Libby was forced to work from 

7:00 AM to 4:00 PM due to peculiar circumstances that got really hairy, 

in order to be out of the office early enough 

to hide her mortifying 5 o’clock shadow". 

"Upon entering the Long Island steak restaurant together, Laura María claimed 

that she felt a hostile spirit.  Throughout her birthday lunch, she spoke of feeling 

drafts that she attributed to cold ghosts that made her steak cold like a cadaver 

and constantly made dramatic hand gestures to chase the spirits away".  

Excerpts -- L.E. Vega, "Hairy Spanish Girl", A Novel

"Hairy Spanish Girl: La Fille Espagnole Poilu" The novel "Ms. Quixote Goes Country - Raised on the Marxist Frontier" is the sequel to the novel "Hairy Spanish Girl". Leave it to the author L.E. Vega to defy with boldness and assurance by sailing straight through as a writer. Having very modern ideas, the author's original goal was to sculpture the literary image of an educated Hispanic woman, something practically unheard of in 1980 when the novel was conceived. The achieved result, however, is a humorous progression of an unyielding hairy Spanish girl who keeps quiet and does not draw attention. Picture Libby Castillo, a youngish Spanish American woman in the heart of New York City who could easily be a real life character in any of today's circles. She is forced to work from 7 a.m. to 4 p.m. in order to surreptitiously be out of the office before she grows her hysterical five o'clock shadow. Her peculiar plot leads the reader through a series of hairy situations that can only be described as engaging in chapters that resound the amusing but harmless world of Salvador Dalí.

"Uva's Song - The Mountain Coquí Hero" Uva, a young, courageous Coquí (pronounced "ko-kee"), saved his village with his song. In Spanish, "uva" means grape (pronounced "oo-va"). Uva was named after the scenic labyrinth where he was born, interlaced in a dense growth of tropical grape shrubs fanned by the ocean breeze. Uva's children's story comes with a Spanish translation, a Mini Coquí Biography, and coquí illustrations simulating Taíno Petroglyphs.
