Mehso-so

Todavía lo estoy leyendo. Son cuentos cortos que no tienen una conexión muy lógica. Debe ser por el estilo surrealista de Cortázar, pero no sé si soy muy aficionada. Las historias me dejan sin entender qué pasó y nada tiene mucho sentido.

Absurd... surreal... ridiculous... beautiful.... the perfect gateway to the Cortazar universe!
Let us all become more like a Cronopio and much less like a Fama!!

I haven't done my Latin American recommendation in a while. Julio Cortázar is one of the region's brightest writers. He is Argentinan but was auto exiled in Paris due to his political stand. He is the King of the nonsensical. This books is one of greatest collection of shorstories and has been translated into English.

RealLifeReading Thanks! I'm always on the lookout for works in translation ! Please keep the recommendations coming! 8y
