Book Overview

Este primer volumen de las novelas cortas de Juan Carlos Onetti re ne: El pozo (1939), Los adioses (1954), Para una tumba sin nombre (1959), La cara de la desgracia (1960) y Jacob y el otro (1961).
Con la publicaci n de El pozo en 1939, Juan Carlos Onetti imprim a las primeras huellas de una trayectoria extraordinaria al tiempo que la literatura hispanoamericana abr a sus puertas a una voz irrepetible.

Este primer volumen de sus Novelas breves abarca un per odo de veintid s a os a lo largo de los cuales el autor uruguayo consolid e hizo inconfundible un estilo perpetrado en obras como las que aqu se re nen: Los adioses (1954), Para una tumba sin nombre (1959), La cara de la desgracia (1960) y Jacob y el otro (1961), adem s de su ya mentado debut narrativo. Sus p ginas son el fruto amargo de la turbia pero hiriente mirada de unos ojos enfrentados alrostro mismo de la existencia y la condici n humana.

Rese as:
Onetti sintetiza, simult neamente, la precisi n constructiva y ling stica de Borges y la pasi n humana. Para m , Onetti escribe en el l mite del idioma.

El m s grande novelista latinoamericano.

ENGLISH DESCRIPTION

The first of the great works by an essential author, considered by Mario Vargas Llosa as the first modern Latin American novel. Eladio Linacero, an existential antihero, is run down by his realization of the degeneration of human existence and the uselessness of all attempts at communication.

He tries to free himself from his daily tedium through fiction... Writing about a dream set in Canada is the escape route that lets him construct a new reality of his own design, as the protagonist attempts to "do something different. Something better than the things that happened to me. I would like to write the story of an unfettered soul, without the circumstances which ended up ensnaring him."
