Lands of Memory: New Directions Paperbook, cartea 1110

Autor Felisberto Hernandez Traducere de Esther Allen
en Limba Engleză Paperback – 2013

Lands of Memory presents a half-dozen wonderful works by Felisberto Hernandez, "a writer like no other," Italo Calvino declared, "like no European or Latin American. He is an 'irregular, ' who eludes all classifications and labellings yet he is unmistakable on any page to which one might randomly open one of his books."

Named a Guardian Best Book of the Year by Alfred Brendel and a TLS Best Book of the Year by Michael Hofmann (who calls Felisberto "a loopier, vegetarian Kafka, inhabiting his mazy personal baroque"), Lands of Memory collects four astonishing stories and the two dreamlike novellas "Around the Time of Clemente Colling" and "Lands of Memory.""
