Nombre Falso Spanish, Primera edition

Al contaminar deliberadamente el relato con la resena, el cuento con el ensayo, o la ficcion con la autobiografia, Piglia pergena un texto que cruza una y otra vez las fronteras entre los generos. De entre sus muchas cualidades, Nombre Falso destaca por la gran variedad de personajes que abarcan desde un hombre que prefiere quedarse callado en lugar de decir una palabra que evitara la muerte de un nino, hasta un boxeador decadente que se aferra a un antiguo recorte de diario que atestigua su efimera gloria deportiva. Piglia ya es considerado en nuestro pais una de las lecturas obligadas de nuestro tiempo / In deliberately contaminating anecdote with outline, story with essay or fiction with autobiography, Piglia has created a text which crosses the boundaries between genres again and again. Among its many qualities stands out the books variety of characters that range from a man who would rather say nothing than say a word that would save the life of a boy, to a decadent boxer who clings to an old newspaper clipping that testifies to his ephemeral sporting glory. Piglias works are now considered in Spain to be obligatory reading of our times.
