About the Book

"..Los cuentos...me han gustado mucho. (Algunos) son pequeñas historias sobre algunas ridículas tragedias de la posmodernidad, cuyo humor -y ahí está, creo, su mayor mérito- deriva de una mirada que se desliza de la ironía a la compasión, pues el narrador mezcla su propia voz con la del personaje, evitando así situarse en un plano de superioridad. Lo ridículo se convierte en una atmósfera que todos estamos obligados a respirar: nadie queda exento". Graciela Tomassini, autora de Reconfiguraciones. Estudios críticos sobre narrativa breve hispanoamericana de fin de siglo (Rosario: Fundación Ross, 1996). Muchas de estas diminutas historias atraen tanto por no ser muy comunes como por serlo. En el viaje de la vida uno se encuentra con situaciones reales que superan la magia y excitan la imaginación más allá de lo que pareciera posible, hasta que lo sucedido, lo dicho, lo experimentado prueban lo contrario. Allí reside su ironía, su humor, su belleza y desconcierto. Cuentos de viaje para siete cuerdas y otras metafísicas documenta ficticiamente estas ocurrencias y sus impensables implicaciones. El malabarismo de lo inesperado se convierte en un microrrelato que perdura en un pentagrama de posibles reflexiones, conclusiones y las estelas de otras expansiones imaginativas. "Estos cuentos proponen conocer y reflexionar sobre toda clase de viajes entre ciudades, países y continentes. Pero proponen, sobre todo, viajar entre los más diversos momentos de la experiencia cotidiana. ... Es desde ese lugar privilegiado donde sugiero al lector que se asome a leer un par de textos representativos de este volumen: las "Instrucciones para salir del internet" y las "Instrucciones para meter la pata". En ambos, el logrado homenaje al Manual de Instrucciones de Julio Cortázar demuestra que la voz más genuina del autor, la que está detrás de todas las otras, es la de un cronopio. Favor de asegurar el cinturón de seguridad y disponerse a disfrutar de estos Cuentos de viaje". Lauro Zavala Ahora y con otro género "Ambroggio nos invita a viajar con él, experimentar el mundo como lo ve -con júbilo, admiración y una reverencia sorprendetes" Oscar Hijuelos, Premio Pulitzer
