Julio Cortazar Progres !Sive/vd6LM Wed Oct 5 22:41:12 2011 No.2121122 [Reply] [Original]

Hey /lit/
First notice that I'm not a native english speaker, just a student.
I don't post in this board often but today I need your help.
I want to start reading Julio Cortazar (who's from my homeland, Argentina) but I don't know where to start with him. I really don't know if you're going to know him. I think that he's internationally known but I really don't know.
So.. Where do you think that I've to start? Which is his best work?

>>	Progres !Sive/vd6LM Wed Oct 5 22:47:12 2011 No.2121137 >>2121126 I don't know how much famous he's. He's very influential in latin-america, I didn't find a better place to ask than here.

>>	Anonymous Wed Oct 5 22:49:12 2011 No.2121140 Hey argentinean guy, Julio Cortázar nació en Ixelles. I recommend historias de cronopios & famas as a starting point. if you like that , read rayuela, todos los fuegos el fuego, bestiario, etc...

>>	Anonymous Wed Oct 5 22:50:12 2011 No.2121141 Rayuela si quieres leer una novela, Historias de cronopios y de famas si quieres leer sus cuentos cortos. Saludos.

>>	Anonymous Thu Oct 6 02:54:12 2011 No.2121471 Gabriel Garcia Marquez and Roberto Bolano are the most famous latin-american authors internationally. Cortazar is less well known in the U.S. but most large bookstores would have a copy of "Hopscotch" (Rayuela) so you should read that first.

>>	Anonymous Thu Oct 6 02:59:12 2011 No.2121481 Silly me, I thought Rayuela was the only thing he ever wrote
