Libros de Héctor Tizón (2 libros)

The seven beautiful short in this collection concern the lives of an upper-middle-class family in small town Argentina in the 1930s. It is a patriarchal society, bound to fading customs and harsh realities. The Model T has arrived and so too has the Olympic swimmer Jonny Weissmuller, but little of the outside world is know first-hand, instead only as depicted in the French novels they read. The collection is followed by the author's notes on his thoughts about the writing of each story.

«Y todo el recorrido que en vida le había tocado hacer, se le representaba ahora como la letra y el ritmo de una canción íntima y enternecedora.»
