  • Overview

    Un legado invaluable que nos invita a seguir leyendo, escribiendo y soñando

    Un papiro de tiempos de Alejandro Magno que une a un agitador serbio con un terrorista de la antigua Grecia, un semidiós que comparte sus aflicciones con las de un marido pusilánime, una cuadrilla de veteranos inválidos que se reivindican a punta de patas de palo o un gato que pasa de víctima a victimario… En el cuento cabe todo. Las posibilidades son tantas como los atributos de la vida misma, que no pierde ocasión para mostrar sus dotes ficcionales.

    Desde los primeros textos influidos por Borges hasta las proezas vanguardistas y los relatos de ritmo policiaco o tono terrorífico, en La sangre de Medusa —recopilación de cuentos escritos entre 1956 y 1984 (dispersos hasta su edición corregida y definitiva publicada en 1990)— la estela narrativa de José Emilio Pacheco brilla con fulgor universal.

    ENGLISH DESCRIPTION

    An invaluable legacy that invites us to keep reading, writing, and dreaming.

    A papyrus from the time of Alexander the Great that connects a Serbian agitator with an ancient Greek terrorist, a demigod who shares his afflictions with those of a pusillanimous husband, a squad of disabled veterans who redeem themselves with their wooden legs, or a cat that goes from victim to perpetrator… In a short story, anything fits. The possibilities are as numerous as the attributes of life itself, which never misses an opportunity to showcase its fictional talents.

    From the early texts influenced by Borges to the avant-garde feats and the stories with a crime rhythm or a terrifying tone, in La sangre de Medusa (The Blood of Medusa) —a collection of stories written between 1956 and 1984 (scattered until their corrected and definitive edition published in 1990)— the narrative trail of José Emilio Pacheco shines with universal brilliance.
