«Bestiario» is the short story collection by Julio Cortázar published by Punto de Lectura in paperback (144 pages, in Spanish).
Bestiario is the first collection of short stories that Julio Cortázar published under his own name. The eight stories turn the everyday into a territory of nightmare or revelation, combining surprise and unease to leave the reader before a strangely different reality.
Bestiario was originally published in 1951; the 2006 edition belongs to the Formato Grande collection from Punto de Lectura.
Suitable for readers of short fiction and Latin American literature who appreciate classic stories where the fantastic blends with the everyday.
Julio Florencio Cortázar was an Argentine and naturalised French novelist, short story writer, poet, essayist, and translator. Known as one of the founders of the Latin American Boom, Cortázar influenced an entire generation of Spanish-speaking readers and writers in America and Europe.
