«Usted No Me Lo Va a Creer» is a collection of short stories by Roberto Fontanarrosa, published by De La Flor in paperback (300 pages, in Spanish).
Fontanarrosa's stories start from ordinary situations and take them down unexpected paths: a drawing class with a live model becomes a spectacle for the students, and the dinner with which a couple wants to introduce a candidate to a friend ends in catastrophe. Humour, irony and the occasional foray into science fiction complete the volume.
The work reached its fifth edition in 2005. The cover adds the subtitle «y otros cuentos».
For readers of short Latin American fiction who appreciate humour and irony in everyday situations.
Roberto Alfredo Fontanarrosa, popularly known as El Negro Fontanarrosa, was an Argentine cartoonist, comics artist and writer. During his extended career, Fontanarrosa became one of the most acclaimed historieta artists of his country, as well as a respected fiction and short story writer. He created two hugely popular comic strips, as well as their parodic protagonists: Inodoro Pereyra, a gaucho, and Boogie, el aceitoso, a gun-for-hire. He also created the comic book Los Clásicos según Fontanarrosa, which contained a selection of humorous parodies of universal literature mainstays originally published in the magazine Chaupinela, in the 1970s.
