    • 2002, Albert Sánchez Piñol, chapter 11, in La pell freda, La Campana, →ISBN:
      Però, com sempre, es mirava en Batís al balcó, els trets, el meu plor, l'assalt al far, amb la distància que un quadre de motius bèl·lics genera en l'espectador de pinacoteca.
      But, as usual, she watched Batís on the balcony, the shots, my weeping, and the assault on the lighthouse with a distance which a painting with warlike motifs would provoke in an art gallery visitor.
