Hiritarrek arazo larri bat dute, eta horregatik jo dute Alkatearengana. Aholkulari talde batekin bildu ondoren, arin eta prestu erantzun die Alkateak; jakintsua izateaz gain, beti baitago hiriaren alde. Hiritarren zerbitzura. Baina arazoaren konponbideak beste arazo bat sortuko du, eta bigarren honen konponbideak hirugarren arazo bat. Eta horrela, konponbide batetik bestera arazoak biderkatu egingo dira hirian. Halako batean, alkatea bera arazo bihurtzen den arte.
The local people have a problem, so they go to the mayor. After meeting a group of advisers, the mayor answers them promptly and concisely, because as well as being smart this mayor always works for the town. At the service of its people. But the solution to the problem creates another problem, and the solution to this second one creates yet another. Like this, the problems multiply from one solution to the next. Until in one of them it’s the mayor that becomes the problem.
Elkar publishing house was founded in 1975, with the aim of promoting Basque culture. Since then it has been very active as both a publisher and a record label, promoting the literary and musical works of writers and musi- cians and, at the same time, helping to fill gaps in and fulfil the needs of our culture. Thanks to the work carried out in these years, Elkar’s catalogue cur- rently holds more than 2,500 works.
