5.0 out of 5 stars EXCELENTE, June 28, 1999
By A Customer
este libro es excelente. me encantaron los cuentos que tiene y ademas es mucho mas facil de leer que rayuela , el otro es un reto increiblemente delicioso para los lectores. este libro presenta casas encantdas, embotellamientos de traficos donde se recrean la absurdidad de la vida cotidiana y la ilusion de alguien que vive en dos mundos en la noche boca arriba. es una obra que se debe disfrutar despacion, un cuento a la vez para no perder el sabor a juego y anomalia que nos deja cortazar al leerlo.

5.0 out of 5 stars Brillante! Cortázar es un maestro, July 29, 2000
By C. Chang "fahrenheit_33166" (Torrance, CA United States) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
Primero, debo confesar que soy un fanático de Cortazar. Este libro reúne algunos relatos brillantes y otros que son difíciles de seguir. Pero debemos entender que muchos de los relatos de Cortázar transmiten sensaciones, estados de ánimo, más que argumentos o cadenas de hechos. Estas sensaciones son casi siempre vagamente opresivas, sutilezas que nos absorven a su universo que nos puede parecer real, pero que siempre hay algo que no encaja en esa realidad. Cuando nos dimos cuenta, ya nos ha transportado a su mundo de fantasmas y estamos compartiendo un sutil sufrimiento con el autor y las protagonistas. Por esta razon, Cortazar es un maestro. En su mayoria, sus relatos tienen complejos vaivenes de argumentos, que siempre termina sorprendiéndonos. Cortázar juega con nosotros, los lectores, para conducirnos de la mano hacia un mundo de sensaciones y sorpresas que termina maravillándonos por la destreza de su guía.

3.0 out of 5 stars A veces autopista, a veces callejon sin salida., May 24, 2000
By A Customer
Compré este libro esperando que me sirviera de introducción al trabajo de Julio Cortazar. Logró su cometido estupendamente, aunque el trabajo en si llega a los extremos. Desde cuentos absolutamente brillantes como La Casa Tomada, y Cuentos de Cronopios y Famas, hasta historias aburridisimas, que no llegan a ninguna parte. Una lectura muchas veces espectacular, otras monotona y dificil. Cortazar no ha ganado un nuevo fanático conmigo, pero eso no es motivo para parar a nadie a leerlo. Aquellos que lo disfrutan, lo disfrutarán.
