Cât de mult o iubim pe Glenda

Julio Cortázar’s stories bring fantasy into daily life. They trace the past of music and politics in Argentina. Some take place on subway platforms in Buenos Aires. Others take us to a calm tropical island. The tales mix suspense with deep inner struggles and play.

This book of short stories suits readers who like varied themes. It also offers them a wide range of settings. Cortázar, an Argentine writer, uses play to shape and explore fiction. Mario Vargas Llosa links this to the writer’s life. He sees a close bond between Cortázar’s writing and daily life.

Luminita Voina-Raut did the translation from Spanish. The book’s original title is Queremos tanto a Glenda. This edition forms part of a series on Cortázar’s work.
