I have slept and I have dreamed. Undoubtedly my own image wandered through the non-spatial dimensions of my dream; non-spatial and timeless; unique dimensions; strange to our limited prison of wakefulness..." In the stories of The Other Shore, written between 1937 and 1945, Julio Cortázar shows us the fantastic in the interstices of everyday reality. Ghosts, vampires, witches, and doubles emerge, as does the fly in Paula's soup in "Witch," to reveal that the author himself considers, from the beginning, that his work belongs to the fantastic genre in its broadest sense, ranging from the supernatural to the mysterious and from terror to the unusual. First published in 1995, this book presents an early Cortázar, his obsessions, and his ongoing dialogue with writers like Horacio Quiroga, Leopoldo Lugones, Jorge Luis Borges, Adolfo Bioy Casares, Silvina Ocampo, and Felisberto Hernández. The Other Shore accompanies from its title the recognition of the Río de la Plata territory, which is already a canon of fantastic, gothic, and horror literature, now nourished by contemporary authors like Mariana Enriquez, Samanta Schweblin, or Luciano Lamberti. An unmissable and perhaps forgotten work of the beloved cronopio. Critics said: "Cortázar has left us a work perhaps unfinished but as beautiful and indestructible as his memory." —Gabriel García Márquez "No other writer gave literary dignity to play as Cortázar did, nor made play an instrument of artistic creation and exploration so ductile and profitable. Cortázar's work opened unprecedented doors." —Mario Vargas Llosa "Cortázar is almost a Bolívar of Latin American literature. He is a man who has liberated us, who has told us that everything can be done." —Carlos Fuentes "Prose made of air, without weight or body but blowing an impetus and raising in our minds flocks of images and visions; a communicating vessel between the street rhythms of the city and the poet's soliloquy.
