Description: "Powerful stories by Argentine writer from Mundo animal, his first collection, influenced by Borges, Kafka, and others. Di Benedetto explains that he wants to 'intern' readers in 'the mysteries of life,' something which his complexly plotted tales of the transformation of human beings-become animals accomplish provocatively. Adequate, although at times stilted, translations. Bilingual edition"--Handbook of Latin American Studies, v. 58.
