About this product
Product Information
Lumen recupera una voz fundamental: una de las mejores cuentistas del siglo XX en español. &la" Un volumen de cuentos que revela a una autora &la"con un talento magnético, una mujer con un universo propio muy único, sumamente complejo, oscuro y luminoso a la vez --Leila Guerriero &la"Una de las escritoras más talentosas y extrañas de la literatura en español. --Mariana Enriquez Publicado por primera vez en 1948, Autobiografía de Irene cumple las promesas de la mejor literatura: una narración diáfana, un estilo de económica precisión, el vuelo de la imaginación a sus anchas. En estos cinco cuentos, que transcurren en escenarios tan diversos como la Roma antigua, una ciudad de China o el campo de la provincia de Buenos Aires, Silvina Ocampo explora la identidad, la mentira, el rencor, la muerte, la melancolía, los sueños, las certidumbres e incertidumbres acerca de lo que ocurrió o no ocurrió a menudo, las líneas temáticas se confunden en la calma y un inusitado esplendor comparece con toda su violencia. La fascinación que el más extenso de los relatos, &la"El impostor , ha despertado en guionistas y directores de cine no es casual: esta historia poblada de claves equívocas nos precipita en una ensoñación diurna donde la realidad y sus artificios establecen una fantasmagoría inolvidable. Esta nueva edición incluye el argumento inédito que la autora escribió para una versión cinematográfica, nunca realizada, de esa ambigua nouvelle. En el 120. aniversario de su nacimiento, Lumen recupera este volumen de cuentos imprescindible de una escritora única e inclasificable, admirada por Borges, Pizarnik y Cortázar, que se mantuvo como el gran secreto de la literatura latinoamericana. ENGLISH DESCRIPTION In this volume, Lumen rescues the voice of one of the twentieth century's best storytellers in the Spanish language. The stories reveal an author with "a compelling talent, a woman who inhabits a complex world, dark and luminous at the same time" (Leila Guerriero). "One of the strangest and most talented writers in Spanish literature" (Mariana Enriquez). Published for the first time in 1948, Autobiography of Irene fulfills the promises of the best literature: a diaphanous narrative and precise style that give full flight to the imagination. In the five stories in this collection, set in locations as diverse as Ancient Rome, a city in China, and a rural Buenos Aires province, Silvina Ocampo explores identity, lies, rancor, death, melancholy, dreams, certainty and uncertainty. The storylines often blur until hitting home with an unexpected splendor. The fascination that the longest story, The Impostor , has awakened in scriptwriters and filmmakers isn't surprising: Scattered with false clues, the story plunges readers into a daydream where reality and its artifices create an unforgettable phantasmagoria. This new edition includes the never-before-published plot the author wrote for an unrealized film version of this ambiguous novella. On the 120th anniversary of Ocampo's birth, Lumen brings a new generation of readers the work of a unique and uncategorizable author who was admired by Borges, Pizarnik and Cortázar but remains one of the great secrets of Latin American literature.

Reviews
La crítica ha dicho... «La discreta y distante Silvina Ocampo ha escrito historias memorables.» -Julio Cortázar «De las palabras que podrían definirla, la más precisa es, creo, genial.» -Jorge Luis Borges «En sus cuentos, el mundo trivial sigue siendo reconocible, aunque extraño y transfigurado: de pronto se abre y es otro, pero el cruce de fronteras es completamente imperceptible.» -Alejandra Pizarnik «Claro que hubo lecturas de escritoras de América Latina fundamentales. Para empezar, Alfonsina Storni y Gabriela Mistral [...]. Después vino [...] nuestra Silvina Ocampo, por supuesto.» -Samanta Schweblin «Silvina era inevitablemente original.» -Adolfo Bioy Casares «Un talento magnético, una mujer con un universo propio muy único, sumamente complejo, oscuro y luminoso a la vez.» -Leila Guerriero «La fuerza de la sutil ferocidad de Silvina Ocampo reside en que siempre se mantiene tranquila, impasible, como la de los niños, que no excluye una mirada límpida y una leve sonrisa.» -Italo Calvino «En sus cuentos, el mundo trivial sigue siendo reconocible, aunque extraño y transfigurado: de pronto se abre y es otro, pero el cruce de fronteras es completamente imperceptible.» -Alejandra Pizarnik «Silvina Ocampo es un genio, una de las grandes.» -César Aira «Quizás la autora más admirada de la literatura argentina, y a su vez una de las más desconocidas. [...] Escritora genial y hermética a partes iguales.» -Lucía Lijtmaer
