Book of Manuel

The last novel of the great Cortazar. His most furious and temperamental work, in which he addresses the events of the recent past, refracting them through the prism of his characteristic technique - “a book within a book.” The author's literary fiction is intertwined with the real events of two parallel worlds in Paris and Argentina, creating a single universal space in which there is a continuous struggle for justice and happiness. The struggle is not only for abstract ideals, but also for the happiness of a little boy, for whom the heroes of the novel create a sad chronicle of their generation - the Book of Manuel.
