2019 December 18, Harold Alvarado Tenorio, “Para recordar a Juan Luis Panero”, in El Nacional:Prácticamente Panero destrozó lo que quedaba de su vida luego de las tormentas de celos de su único marido, Fernando Garavito, y la dura vida que le fue deparando su trabajo en Nueva Frontera, donde incluso llegó a redactar varios de los plagios que Lleras Restrepo hacía pasar como suyos, como la serie sobre famosas prostitutas, que él mal traducía del italiano y Carranza decentaba para su publicación.- (please add an English translation of this quotation)
