by Cesar Aira (Author)

Este volumen reúne diez de las mejores novelas del gran autor argentino, César Aira, con selección y prefacio de Juan Pablo Villalobos.

«Hace tiempo descubrimos que la gran novela de César Aira se estaba escribiendo con la acumulación de sus decenas de novelitas, que alcanzaron la centena en 2018. Los devotos fuimos atesorándolas como si se tratara de los fascículos de una enciclopedia secreta, ya que, además, iban publicándose con rapidez por aquí y por allá, de manera esquiva -un gesto más propio de un artista contemporáneo que de un escritor.

En el camino nos acostumbramos a que algunas de las entregas tuvieran sólo diez o quince páginas, a que asumieran formas diversas- digresiones ensayísticas, crónicas inverosímiles, cuentos de hadas-, a que cuestionaran conscientemente las reglas de aquello que suele considerarse "escribir bien". Porque, al fin y al cabo, qué podemos esperar de una obra de César Aira? Cualquier cosa: un artefacto ingenioso e impredecible, una miniatura narrativa que renueva, una y otra vez, la literatura.

Este volumen reúne por vez primera diez novelas publicadas en editoriales pequeñas y que en muchos casos estaban fuera de circulación. Diez piezas del insólito rompecabezas airano una novela de zombies, una teoría y práctica del humor, la biografía de un músico de jazz genial, o el relato delirante de la huida de dos personajes diminutos dentro de la maqueta de un colegio, entre otras. Diez razones que confirman a César Aira como uno de los narradores más asombrosos de la literatura actual. . -Juan Pablo Villalobos

Este volumen incluye las novelas: Cecil Taylor, La costurera y el viento, Las conversaciones, El divorcio, Los dos payasos, El volante, La confesión, La pastilla de hormona, La cena y Diario de la hepatitis.

ENGLISH DESCRIPTION

This volume compiles ten of the best novels by the great Argentine author, Cesar Aira, with selection and preface made by Juan Pablo Villalobos.

"Some time ago we discovered that Cesar Aira's great novel was being written little by little with the collection of dozens of his short novels; in 2018 they reached the hundreds. We, his devoted followers, were treasuring them as if they were the fascicles of a secret encyclopedia, since they were quickly being published here and there, in an subtle way.

"Along the way we got used to some only being ten to fifteen pages long; we knew to expect different forms, and to consciously question the rules of what was considered "to write well." Because, after all, what can we expect from Cesar Aira's works? Anything: a clever and unpredictable piece, a miniature narrative that revives and invigorates, literature.

"Now for the first time, this volume compiles ten novels originally published by small publishing houses and that in many cases were no longer available to readers. Ten pieces of the unusual and curious Airanian puzzle: Cecil Taylor / Cecil Taylor, La costurera y el viento / The seamstress and the wind, Las conversaciones / Conversations, El divorcio / Divorce, Los dos payasos / Two clowns, El volante / The Flyer, La confesión / Confession, La pastilla de hormona / The hormone pill, La cena / Dinner, and Diario de la hepatitis / Diary of hepatitis. These ten reasons ratify Cesar Aira as one of the most amazing narrators of current-day literature." - Juan Pablo Villalobos
