Paperback. Condition: new. Paperback. Un ensayo que muestra el costado mas ludico y menos solemne del gran escritor argentino Jorge Luis Borges.Cual es la clave, la contrasena o la molecula inigualable que constituye la esencia de lo borgeano? Alan Pauls hilvana, a su manera, un manual de instrucciones que da cuenta de la obra m…as importante de la literatura argentina. Pero mas que un conjunto de ensayos criticos, El factor Borges atraviesa los principales conceptos asociados a ese universo originalidad, tradicion, biblioteca para mapear no solo el nucleo de sus textos, sino tambien la configuracion de su identidad. Una busqueda tan profunda como incesante por la imagen que el escritor proyecto durante su vida y de manera postuma y, por supuesto, esa maquinaria perfecta que se anticipo a su tiempo y trasciende su propia sintaxis.Tambien lo que no siempre llegamos a considerar sobre Borges encuentra una dimension en este libro. Incluso su perseverante naturaleza pendenciera y esas estrategias sutiles pero significativas que Pauls interpreta de manera magistral, como la aparente coqueteria de quitarse solo un ano de edad para coincidir exactamente con el siglo que le toco vivir.ENGLISH DESCRIPTIONAn essay showing the most ludic and less solemn side of the great Argentinian writer Jorge Luis Borges. What is the key, the password, or the unparalleled molecule that constitutes Borges essence? Alan Pauls ties together, in his own way, an instruction manual that gives an account of the most important works in Argentinian literature. But more than a collection of critical essays, The Borges Factor runs through the main concepts associated with this universeoriginality, tradition, libraryto not only map the core of Borges texts, but also the geometry of his identity. It is a quest as deep as it is relentless to find the image the writer projected during his lifetime and posthumously. And, of course, that perfect machinery that was ahead of its time and that transcends his own syntax. Furthermore, what we never fully considered about Borges finds its own dimension in this book. Even his persistently quarrelsome nature, and those subtle yet significant strategies that Pauls interprets masterfully, including the seemingly coy act of pretending to be only one year younger to match exactly the birth of the century he lived in.

Paperback. Condition: new. Paperback. Este volumen reune la trilogia de novelas independientes con que Alan Pauls vuelve sobre los anos mas tempestuosos de la Argentina reciente.Una trilogia esplendidamente narrada que confirma a Alan Pauls como uno delos pocos escritores argentinos contemporaneos realmente imprescindibles. Patr…icio Pron, ABC CulturalEstas novelas huerfanas -como mascullaba en sus diarios el autor- fraguan la epopeya conocida en Argentina como Los Anos Setenta con destellos de la materia mas cotidiana y perenne: el goce de ser una victima y llorar lagrimas de cocodrilo; la pasion del cash, nunca tan intensa como cuando el dinero se esfuma en los vertigos de la inflacion, el juego o el despilfarro; el pelo como icono frivolo-politico, lacio-burgues o afro-revolucionario, y cierta peluca celebre por participar del secuestro que inauguro la decada en cuya orbita legendaria sigue moviendose Argentina.Reunidas por primera vez en un solo volumen, Historia del llanto, Historia del pelo e Historia del dinero narran como se forma una sensibilidad al calor de un punado de pasajes decisivos: del colegio privado a la solidaridad socialista; de la novela familiar a la intemperie del mundo social; de la ilusion amorosa al desencanto; del culto de la imagen al duelo; de la ostentacion y la opulencia a una bancarrota que es mucho mas que financiera.Lucido hasta el extravio, Pauls dirige su haz de luz directo a los ojos de quien lee para que en la ceguera aprecie la materia risible de la que se nutre toda experiencia humana. La singular. Y la politica.ENGLISH DESCRIPTIONThis volume features the trilogy of independent novels with which Alan Pauls examines the most tempestuous recent years in Argentina.These orphan novelsas the author mumbled in his diariesset the epic tale known in Argentina as The Seventies, with glints of the most ordinary and everlasting subject: the joy of being a victim and crying a river; the passion of cash, never as intense as when money disappears on the vertigo of inflation, gambling, or squandering; hair as a frivolous-political icon, bourgeois straight or revolutionary afro, and certain famous wig that participated in the kidnapping that opened the decade, in whose legendary orbit Argentina still revolves around. Collected for the first time in one single volume, A History of Grief, A History of Hair, and A History of Money narrate how sensibility is forged in the heat of a bunch of decisive moments: from private school to socialist solidarity; from family novel to the inclemency of the social world; from romantic illusion to heartbreak; from a worship of image to mourning; from ostentation and opulence, to a bankruptcy that is far more than financial. Lucid to a point of straying, Pauls casts his light straight into the eyes of those who read so that in their blindness, they may appreciate the laughable aspect all human experience nurtures from. The singular. And the political. Shipping may be from multiple locations in the US or from the UK, depending on stock availability.
