Description

Considered the greatest Brazilian writer of the 20th century and one of the great renovators of universal modern literature, João Guimarães Rosa (1908-1967) is compared to Proust, Joyce, and Borges. This is his first book, which consists of nine extensive stories. "Sagarana" has around sixty editions in Portuguese: this is the first in Spanish. With this book, Adriana Hidalgo editora begins the process of rescuing a key author of international literature, which will continue in 2008 with the reissue of the novel "The Great Sertão: Veredas", a fundamental work in Guimaraes' production.
