Paperback. Condizione: new. Paperback. Un recorrido por Zapotlan el Grande de la mano de sus habitantesArreola, uno de los mejores escritores de ficcion breve de Mexico, nos ofrece en La feria, un texto fenomenal que pertenece al genero de los Apocalipsis de bolsillo. Sus paginas recogen fragmentos, textuales o deformados, de la mas variada tradicion oral y escrita, procedente sobre todo de Ezequiel y de Isaias, de los Apocrifos, del cartulario colonial y de los anales de un pueblo imaginado al sur de Jalisco. Se trata en realidad de puros recuerdos de infancia, de cosas leidas, vistas y oidas, puestas unas tras otra, al azar. La fidelidad a los giros populares y el realismo magico de ciertos personajes son tal vez las mejores cualidades de este libro desordenado, multiple y singular, breve y abundante.ENGLISH DESCRIPTIONA Journey Through Zapotlan el Grande with Its InhabitantsArreola, one of Mexico's finest short fiction writers, presents us with La feria (The Fair ), a phenomenal text that belongs to the genre of Pocket Apocalypses. Its pages gather fragments, either verbatim or altered, from the most varied oral and written traditions, mainly from Ezekiel and Isaiah, the Apocrypha, colonial cartularies, and the annals of an imagined town in southern Jalisco. In reality, it consists purely of childhood memories, things read, seen, and heard, placed one after another at random.The fidelity to popular expressions and the magical realism of certain characters are perhaps the best qualities of this disordered, multifaceted, and singular book, both brief and abundant.

Paperback. Condizione: new. Paperback. "Su campo de accion es el ser humano, ya que su aproximacion al mundo de los animales se cobija en Jonathan Swift y las bestias sugieren conductas de hombres; sin embargo, las descripciones son portentosas y no solo incluyen los simbolos naturales sino vision poetica y conocimiento intuitivo." Jose Agustin Existen pocos libros en la literatura mexicana con la mordacidad y la elocuencia de Bestiario. En cada una de sus vinetas de efecto lapidario, en los trazos de su estilo, en los vuelos de su ingenio y en la oportuna agudeza de su erudicion aparece el narrador impecable que fue Juan Jose Arreola (1918-2001). Sus paginas conjugan su pasion por el ensayo breve y el poema en prosa. Sus imagenes no son menos evocadoras que las del celebre Manual de zoologia fantastica de Jorge Luis Borges, ni menos naturalistas que los fabulosos inventarios que se han creado en torno al reino animal.ENGLISH DESCRIPTION "His field of action is the human being, as his approach to the world of animals is sheltered in Jonathan Swift and the beasts suggest human behaviors; however, the descriptions are magnificent and not only include natural symbols but also poetic vision and intuitive knowledge." Jose Agustin There are few books in Mexican literature with the mordacity and eloquence of Bestiario. In each of its lapidary effect vignettes, in the strokes of its style, in the flights of its wit, and in the timely sharpness of its erudition, the impeccable narrator that was Juan Jose Arreola (1918-2001) appears. His pages combine his passion for the brief essay and the prose poem. His images are no less evocative than those of the famous Manual de zoologia fantastica by Jorge Luis Borges, nor less naturalistic than the fabulous inventories that have been created around the animal kingdom.

Paperback. Condizione: new. Paperback. Es una invitacion a adentrarnos en una prosa aguda y corruscante, que tomandonos en broma nos cuestiona de manera profunda y radical. La obra de Juan Jose Arreola (Jalisco, 1918- 2001) es un despliegue notable de temas y estilos; del cuento fantastico a la fabula de animales, de lo magico a lo fantasmagorico, del amor idealizado a las mas hermosas metaforas del dolor y de la muerte, los relatos reunidos en este Confabulario recorren ese espacio de ingenuidad y sapiencia que constituye el nucleo de su obra. Una obra cuyos origenes se remontan a las literaturas clasicas y en la que el lector -como resalto un critico- descubrira a un narrador de poderosa y sorprendente imaginacion, a un orfebre de las palabras y a un mago con los poderes de la imaginacion. "Soy autodidacto, es cierto. Pero a los doce anos y en Zapotlan el Grande lei a Baudelaire, a Walt Whitman y a los principales fundadores de mi estilo: Papini y Marcel Schwob. Y oia canciones y los dichos populares y me gustaba mucho la conversacion", escribio el propio Arreola, una de las mayores voces, junto a Juan Rulfo, de la literatura mexicana contemporanea. ENGLISH DESCRIPTION It is an invitation to delve into a sharp and coruscant prose, which, taking us as a joke, questions us in a profound and radical way. The work of Juan Jose Arreola (Jalisco, 1918-2001) is a remarkable display of themes and styles; from the fantastic tale to the fable of animals, from the magical to the phantasmagoric, from idealized love to the most beautiful metaphors of pain and death, the stories gathered in this Confabulario travel through that space of naivety and wisdom that constitutes the core of his work. A work whose origins go back to classical literatures and in which the reader - as one critic pointed out - will discover a narrator of powerful and surprising imagination, a goldsmith of words and a magician with the powers of imagination. "I'm self-taught, it's true. But at the age of twelve and in Zapotlan el Grande I read Baudelaire, Walt Whitman and the main founders of my style: Papini and Marcel Schwob. And I listened to songs and popular sayings and I liked the conversation very much," wrote Arreola himself, one of the greatest voices, along with Juan Rulfo, of contemporary Mexican literature. Collections of this author's short prose works titled Confabulario vary in contents from one edition to another.
