Preguntaron a Cecil Beaton: ¿qué es la elegancia? Y respondió: agua y jabón. Que es lo mismo que decir: lo elegante es lo sencillo, lo útil, lo de toda la vida. La elegancia involuntaria se asocia al gesto generoso, a la alegría discreta, a la persona que aporta y apacigua.
El libro se divide en tres partes: «Temperamentos», «Objetos» y «Lugares». Un canon personal construido no como un refugio contra la vulgaridad –la vulgaridad puede ser maravillosa–, sino contra el sucedáneo. Completa el texto un suplemento de afinidades en forma de diccionario. El mundo de este libro es fragmentario, lento, de convivencia fácil. La barredura de nombres se puede leer aleatoriamente. No esperen emociones fuertes. Abrir por cualquier página, un rato de compañía, descubrir algo, ir a dar un paseo. Eso sería perfecto.
Agua y jabón habla del amor a las bibliotecas públicas, el humor barato, los mapas, la familia Cirlot, Paul Léautaud, el encanto imbatible de los pajarillos, el paseo errante, los hippies sospechosos, las viejas pastelerías, los trenes y los zepelines, Bruno Munari, Fleur Cowles, los viajes de novios de nuestros padres, la Venecia de Wagner, los perros cuentistas, comer fruta directamente del árbol, lo cursi y lo camp, el Rastro, Josep Pla, las manías, los tricornios, las mantas, Snoopy, barrer nuestro trozo de acera, Giorgio Morandi, Carlos Barral, Ricardo Bofill, el surf, la lana, el queso, los jardines.
Lo recogido en Agua y jabón es el resultado de una trayectoria intuitiva y desordenada. Hay lealtades antiguas y otras recientes. Hay, sobre todo, silencio, admiración, paciencia y predilección por la realidad más próxima.

Information regarding the right of withdrawal
Statutory right to withdraw
You have the right to withdraw from this contract within 14 days without giving any reason.
The withdrawal period will expire after 14 days from the day on which you acquire, or a third party other than the carrier and indicated by you acquires, physical possession of the last good or the last lot or piece.
To exercise the right of withdrawal, electronically fill in and submit a clear statement on our website, under "My Purchases" in "My Account". We will communicate to you an acknowledgement of receipt of such a withdrawal on a durable medium (e.g. by e-mail) without delay.
To meet the withdrawal deadline, it is sufficient for you to send your communication concerning your exercise of the right of withdrawal before the withdrawal period has expired.
Effects of withdrawal
If you withdraw from this contract, we will reimburse to you all payments received from you, including the costs of delivery (except for the supplementary costs arising if you chose a type of delivery other than the least expensive type of standard delivery offered by us).
We may make a deduction from the reimbursement for loss in value of any goods supplied, if the loss is the result of unnecessary handling by you.
We will make the reimbursement without undue delay, and not later than 14 days after the day on which we are informed about your decision to withdraw from this contract.
We will make the reimbursement using the same means of payment as you used for the initial transaction, unless you have expressly agreed otherwise; in any event, you will not incur any fees as a result of such reimbursement.
We may withhold reimbursement until we have received the goods back, or you have supplied evidence of having sent back the goods, whichever is the earliest.
You shall send back the goods or hand them over to medimops, Leipzig, Germany, without undue delay and in any event not later than 14 days from the day on which you communicate your withdrawal from this contract to us. The deadline is met if you send back the goods before the period of 14 days has expired. You will have to bear the direct cost of returning the goods. You are only liable for any diminished value of the goods resulting from the handling other than what is necessary to establish the nature, characteristics and functioning of the goods.
Exceptions to the right of withdrawal
The right of withdrawal does not apply to:
- The delivery of newspapers, journals or magazines with the exception of subscription contracts; and
- The supply of digital content which is not supplied on a tangible medium (e.g. on a CD or DVD) if you accepted when you placed your order that we could start to deliver it, and that you could not withdraw once delivery had started.
