Tales of Chronopes and Fames

Tales of Chronopes and Fames is a translation of the book Historias de cronopios y de famas by the late Argentinian author Julio Cortazar. The prose pieces included within the book are organized into chapters that give the reader a context for understanding, a sort of contextual fence that helps to contain the often strange and fantastical material contained within them. This book exemplifies Cortazar's unique and delightful use of Magic Realism.
