«La Sabiduría de los Cuentos» is Alejandro Jodorowsky's anthology of tales, published by Ediciones Obelisco in paperback (182 pages, in Spanish).
Anthology of initiatory tales prepared by Jodorowsky, proposing an interpretive reading far from the literal: the gaze transforms appearances. It evokes the coexistence of Christianity, Islam and Judaism and brings together Sufi, Taoist, Jewish, Buddhist and Hindu tales whose wisdom, wrapped in humour, reflects our own history.
The Spanish edition was published on 27 November 2001 within the Narrativa collection of Ediciones Obelisco.
For readers interested in traditional tales, comparative spiritualities and Jodorowsky's facet as an interpreter of classic stories.
Alejandro Jodorowsky Prullansky is a Chilean and French avant-garde filmmaker. Known for his films El Topo (1970), The Holy Mountain (1973) and Santa Sangre (1989), Jodorowsky has been "venerated by cult cinema enthusiasts" for his work which "is filled with violently surreal images and a hybrid blend of mysticism and religious provocation".
