Infiltrations

Julio Cortázar Blow-Up and Other Stories is the most fun I've had reading, so far, in 2015. Hopefully that joy comes across in my most recent article, Infiltrations of the Surreal: Argetina’s Julio Cortázar, for Macmillan's Criminal Element.

David Cranmer said...: Patti, I almost (but not quite yet) prefer magical realism and surrealism to straight fiction these days.

Absolutely. Your type of fiction, Charles.

And probably not your type of fiction, Oscar.; August 13, 2015 at 5:32 PM
