«Bajo el sol jaguar» is the collection of three short stories by Italo Calvino, published by Tusquets Editores in paperback (116 pages, in Spanish).
Three tales that turn the senses into a gateway to desire, power and memory. A couple seeks shared ecstasy in Mexican cuisine; a king hears the voices of his destiny in the palace echoes; a man pursues a fragrance that obsesses him.
Originally published in Italian in 1986 as «Sotto il sole giaguaro», this Spanish edition is part of the Andanzas collection (no. 104).
For readers of short fiction who want a sample of Calvino's sensory prose in a compact volume.
