Softcover. Condition: Good. In these eight masterpieces there is no room for the smallest sign of stumbling or youthful undertones: they are perfect. These stories that speak about objects and daily happenings, pass over to another dimension, one of nightmare or revelation. In each text, surprise and uneasiness are ingredients added to the indescribable pleasure of its reading. These stories may upset readers due to a very rare characteristic in literature: They stare at us as if waiting for something in return. After reading these true classics, our opinion of the world cannot remain the same. Description in Spanish: "Bestiario" es el primer libro de relatos que Julio Cortázar publica con su auténtico nombre. No hay en estas ocho obras maestras ni el menor balbuceo ni resacas juveniles: son perfectas. Estos cuentos, que hablan de objetos y hechos cotidianos, pasan a la dimensión de la pesadilla o de la revelación de un modo natural e imperceptible. Sorpresa o incomodidad son, en cada texto, un condimento que se agrega al placer indescriptible de su lectura. Sus relatos nos desazonan porque poseen una característica muy rara en la literatura: se nos quedan mirando, como si esperaran algo de nosotros. Después de leer estos verdaderos clásicos del género, nuestra opinión sobre el mundo no puede seguir siendo la misma.

It doesnt take long for Annie to discover that she is as dangerous as she is alluring, and that in order to defeat her he will have to learn to bet on his life as well as he does on the game of fan-tan. This classic sea adventure is the last surprise of an ever-inventing genius, Marlon Brando. Description in Spanish: Ella era la pirata más famosa de los mares de China. Él no tenía nada que perder Durante aos, Marlon Brando trabajó junto con su amigo, el guionista y director Donald Cammell en esta novela de aventuras en el mar a la manera clásica: la última sorpresa de un genio siempre sorprendente. Si duda, el carismático actor hubiera encarnado como nadie al protagonista de esta historia: Anatole, Annie Doulty, un singular aventurero de comienzos del siglo XX, cuya reputación se extendía por todo el Mar de la China. En 1927, mientras está cumpliendo una condena de seis meses en un infernal presidio de Honk Kong, Annie salva la vida de un prisionero chino, uno de los sicarios de la astuta y despiadada Lai Choi San. Cuando Annie sale de la cárcel, la mujer-pirata le agradecerá el favor con una inesperada oferta: si colabora con ella en el acto de piratería más arriesgado y ambicioso de su vida, le dará la mitad del botín. Annie se embarca en la aventura y descubre que la poderosa Madame Lai es tan peligrosa como seductora y que si quiere vencerla con sus propias armas tendrá que saber apostar tan bien en la vida como en el fan tan, el juego de azar en el que ambos son consumados maestros.
