About the Book

Todos los cuentos del escritor uruguayo que deslumbró a Cortázar, Onetti, García Márquez e Italo Calvino.

Un autor magistral cuyos relatos aúnan con gran originalidad lo cotidiano con lo extraordinario.

Los relatos de Felisberto Hernández, en su esfera de rarezas y a veces en el borde de lo fantástico, abordan la realidad de una manera tan inaudita como certera, para devolvérnosla de tal forma que nos hace pensar que lo que los demás llamábamos así es una construcción arbitraria que tan solo presentíamos, pero que no acertábamos a nombrar.

La suya es una literatura del recuerdo, de la memoria como ficción y como espejo de la verdad al mismo tiempo, con una marca autobiográfica de fronteras difusas que a la vez es superada por una imaginación desbordante.

Felisberto Hernández es, por estos motivos, entre muchos otros, una de las figuras decisivas de la literatura uruguaya y, también, de la narrativa en lengua española del siglo XX.

ENGLISH DESCRIPTION

All the stories by the Uruguayan author who dazzled Cortázar, Onetti, García Márquez, and Italo Calvino. A masterful author whose tales cleverly unite the everyday with the extraordinary.


The tales of Felisberto Hernández, in their realm of eccentricities and sometimes bordering on fantasy, take on reality in such an unprecedented yet accurate way that it makes us think that what the rest of us called "reality" before was an arbitrary construction that we merely sensed, but that we didn't name properly. His is a literature of memory, of memoir as fiction but also as a mirror of the truth, with an autobiographical style of vague boundaries and boundless imagination. Felisberto Hernández is therefore one of the decisive figures in Uruguayan literature and also in 20th-century Spanish-language literature.

With a prologue by the Spanish writer Ray Loriga.

About the Author: Felisberto Hernández (Montevideo, 1902-1964) fue escritor, compositor y pianista. Se dedicó tempranamente a la actividad musical en Montevideo, y en giras por el interior del país, en Argentina y Brasil. A partir de 1925, con Fulano de tal, comienza a publicar sus primeros trabajos como escritor, con escasa repercusión y a menudo editados gracias al apoyo económico de su círculo de amigos. En 1942 publica Por los tiempos de Clemente Colling, y en 1943 El caballo perdido, dos novelas que instalan una intensa e imaginativa narración de la memoria. En 1946 viaja a París, donde pese al respaldo de figuras como Jules Supervielle o Susana Soca no obtiene el reconocimiento esperado. En 1947 publica Nadie encendía las lámparas, que incluye algunos de sus cuentos más recordados, como «El balcón», «La mujer parecida a mí» o «Menos Julia», libro al que siguieron Las hortensias (1949), La casa inundada (1960) y El cocodrilo (1962). Póstumamente se publicó la versión íntegra de la novela Tierras de la memoria(1944), así como otros cuentos y textos inéditos. La obra de Felisberto Hernández ha adquirido con el tiempo una enorme repercusión internacional que le ha convertido en un escritor de referencia por su originalísimo estilo y su particular mecanismo creativo.
