About the Book

Premio Formentor 2021
«Leer a César Aira es siempre una experiencia sorprendente.»
Arturo García Ramos, ABC

Resultado de un exhaustivo y vasto rastreo en hemerotecas y colecciones privadas a cargo de la investigadora María Belén Riveiro, La ola que lee compila reseñas, notas y columnas --dispersas, variadas y hasta ahora inhallables-- que César Aira publicó en revistas y diarios de Argentina, España y Latinoamérica durante tres décadas a partir de 1981, año de su debut con Ema, la cautiva.

Ajena a cualquier automatismo docto, La ola que lee está animada por una erudición amistosa y una alegría vehemente que arrasa con los lugares comunes de la crítica.

Disfrazada de ensayo, Aira trafica una literatura feliz que milita por las vanguardias, defiende el trabajo diario del escritor, comparte sus obsesiones y destaca con admiración el genio de ciertos autores: de Saer a Lamborghini, de Arlt a Puig, de Unica Zürn a Witold Gombrowicz.

ENGLISH DESCRIPTION

Formentor Award 2021
Reading César Aira is always an amazing experience.
Arturo García Ramos, ABC

The result of an exhaustive and vast search in newspaper libraries and private collections by the researcher María Belén Riveiro, The Wave The Reads compiles reviews, notes and columns - scattered, varied and hitherto unreachable - that César Aira published in magazines and newspapers in Argentina, Spain and Latin America for three decades starting in 1981, the year of his debut with Ema, la cautiva.

Oblivious to any learned automatism, The Wave That Reads is animated by a friendly erudition and a fiery joy that sweeps away the platitudes of criticism.

Disguised as an essay, Aira traffics a happy literature that militates in the avant-gardes, defends the writer's daily work, shares his obsessions and highlights with admiration the genius of certain authors: from Saer to Lamborghini, from Arlt to Puig, from Unica Zürn to Witold Gombrowicz.
