Produktbeschreibung

"Arlt's influence on figures like Borges, Cortazar, Onetti, and Piglia is substantial--and equally so are his literary reverberations today, when his grim, sordid view of life seems to speak louder than ever before."--Ilan Stavans, editor of "Mutual Impressions: Writers from the Americas Reading One Another"
