What are them saying

"America Sanchez a Barcelona no és un llibre de disseny tradicional, ja que els diferents treballs estan explicats reproduint diferents converses dels tres autors: Guillamon i Planas van maquetar les imatges de les pàgines i Guillamon va enregistrar els comentaris que van fer ells dos i Sanchez quan van repassar-les plegats durant diversos dinars, i va escriure els textos a mida. "
