Bestiary: The Selected Stories of Julio Cortázar
English
By (author): Julio Cortazar
A collection of masterful short stories in Julio Cortazar's sophistocated, powerful and gripping style.
'Julio Cortázar is truly a sorcerer and the best of him is here, in these hilariously fraught and almost eerily affecting stories' Kevin Barry
A grieving family home becomes the site of a terrifying invasion. A frustrated love triangle, brought together by a plundered Aztec idol, spills over into brutality. A lodgers inability to stop vomiting bunny rabbits inspires a personal confession.
As dream melds into reality, and reality melts into nightmare, one constant remains throughout these thirty-five stories: the singular brilliance of Julio Cortazars imagination.
