Format: Paperback
ISBN: 9780394728810
Publication Date: 02/12/1985
Edition Description: 1st Pantheon paperback edition
One of the most iconic works by one of the most creative and unexpected authors of the 20th century, a dazzling collection that moves from the uncanny to the sublime, the whimsical to the metaphysical, displaying with great panache at every turn "a first-class literary imagination at work" (New York Times Book Review).
A young girl spends her summer vacation in a country house where a tiger roams . . . A man reading a mystery finds out too late that he is the murderer’s intended victim . . .
Originally published in hardcover as End of the Game and Other Stories, the fifteen stories collected here—including “Blow-Up,” which was the basis for Michelangelo Antonioni’s film of the same name—shows Julio Cortázar's nimble capacity to explore the shadowy realm where the everyday meets the mysterious, perhaps even the terrible.
