Lumen recupera una voz fundamental: una de las mejores cuentistas del siglo XX en espa???ol. ??? Un volumen de cuentos que revela a una autora ???con un talento magn???tico, una mujer con un universo propio muy ???nico, sumamente complejo, oscuro y luminoso a la vez??? --Leila Guerriero ???Una de las escritoras m???s talentosas y extra???as de la literatura en espa???ol.???--Mariana Enriquez Publicado por primera vez en 1948, Autobiograf???a de Irene cumple las promesas de la mejor literatura: una narraci???n di???fana, un estilo de econ???mica precisi???n, el vuelo de la imaginaci???n 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 melancol???a, los sue???os, las certidumbres e incertidumbres acerca de lo que ocurri??? o no ocurri??? a menudo, las l???neas tem???ticas se confunden en la calma y un inusitado esplendor comparece con toda su violencia. La fascinaci???n que el m???s extenso de los relatos, ???El impostor???, ha despertado en guionistas y directores de cine no es casual: esta historia poblada de claves equ???vocas nos precipita en una enso???aci???n diurna donde la realidad y sus artificios establecen una fantasmagor???a inolvidable. Esta nueva edici???n incluye el argumento in???dito que la autora escribi??? para una versi???n cinematogr???fica, nunca realizada, de esa ambigua nouvelle. En el 120.??? aniversario de su nacimiento, Lumen recupera este volumen de cuentos imprescindible de una escritora ???nica e inclasificable, admirada por Borges, Pizarnik y Cort???zar, 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 Cort???zar but remains one of the great secrets of Latin American literature.
