2024: AÑO CORTÁZAR

Una obra de estilo clásico y rara belleza, que propone una curiosa variante del mito del minotauro en forma de poema dramático.

«¡Cede lugar a mi secreto amor! ¡Ven, hermano, ven, amante al fin! ¡Surge de la profundidad que nunca osé salvar, asoma desde la hondura que mi amor ha derribado! ¡Brota asido al hilo que te lleva el insensato!».

Los reyes (1949), primer libro publicado por Cortázar con su nombre verdadero es un poema dramático que propone una curiosa variante del mito del Minotauro: Ariadna no está enamorada de Teseo sino del monstruo que habita en el centro del laberinto. Gran conocedor de la estructura cerrada y fatal de los mitos griegos, Cortázar se las ingenia para que la historia tenga, de todas formas, el desenlace conocido: a pesar de las intenciones de su amada, el monstruo elige morir a manos de Teseo. Esta obra de estilo clásico y rara belleza, que ocupa un lugar de excepción dentro de la riquísima obra literaria de Cortázar, tiene el mérito enorme de respetar y, al mismo tiempo, transgredir la tradición.

ENGLISH DESCRIPTION

2024: YEAR OF CORTÁZAR

A work of rare beauty, written in a classical style. A twist on the myth of Minotaur in the form of a dramatic poem.

"Make way for my secret love! Come, brother, come, lover to the end! Arise from the depths that I never dared save, arise from the abyss that my love has demolished! Emerge holding the thread that this foolish boy bears to you!"

The Kings (1949), the first book published by Cortázar under his own name, is a dramatic poem that offers a novel approach to the story of the Minotaur. In his retelling, Ariadne is in love not with Theseus but with the monster who lives at the center of the labyrinth. Cognizant of the closed and fateful structure of Greek myths, Cortázar reworks the story while keeping its classic ending: despite his lover's intentions, the Minotaur chooses to die at the hands of Theseus. A work of rare beauty, written in a classical style that stands apart from the rest of Cortázar's work, The Kings has the enormous merit of respecting tradition even as it transgresses it.

Great shoe, comfort
Size: 11.5, Color: British Tan/Ivry
Love these shoes, they're super comfy. Laces stayed tied all day. I wear them in a business casual environment, or if I'm going out for a nice meal with my wife. They look good, the color is unassuming and neutral. they also elevate my height, I feel like it gives me an inch or so more versus regular shoes. This is my second pair!
