First Edition
Hardcover. Condition: Fine. Dust Jacket Condition: Fine. London: Harvill Press, 1984. First UK Edition. Fine hardcover in price-clipped otherwise Fine dustwrapper. Short stories by an Argentinian who was a central member of South America's great Magic Realist Revolution, translated by one of the greatest of the magic realist translators, Gregory Rabassa. Among these many weird tales you'll encounter "Clone" about a travelling madrigal group who become possessed by the terrible life and history of a Renaissance composer, reenacting scenes from his life in their own. In "Orientation of Cats," a wife's gaze is sapping all happiness from her husband. In the subtly gruesome title tale, obsessive fans of a retired movie starlet buy up all copies of her films in order to edit out every imperfection; then they learn the much less than perfect aged starlet is returning to acting. "Graffiti," set in a Dystopian world, finds its tagging graffiti scribe risking all to paint his opinions in public spaces, only to find that some call-and-response dualist won't stop adding replies. "Text in a Notebook" describes a burgeoning city hidden in the subway.
