This review is from: Confabulario Definitivo / Definitive Confabulario (Letras Hispanicas / Hispanic Writings) (Spanish Edition) (Paperback)
If you are looking for a book with stories that are, at best described as intriguing, then you must own Confabulario Definitivo by Juan José Arreola. Arreola knows how to play with narrative techniques in a manner that will leave the reader in doubt.

In a short story titled, "El guardagujas", Arreola opens up by introducing us to the two characters and leaves almost the whole story in form of dialogue between the two of them. The story develops through their dialogue and leaves the reader wanting more. The story itself is worthy of reading for its hidden meaning and humorous but enlightening ending.

Read "El guardagujas" and the other imaginative short stories in Confabulario Definitivo. More than an author, Arreola is an artist.
