One of the most iconic works by one of the most creative and unexpected authors of the 20th century, a dazzling collection that moves from the uncanny to the sublime, the whimsical to the metaphysical, displaying with great panache at every turn "a first-class literary imagination at work" (New York Times Book Review). A young girl spends her summer vacation in a country house where a tiger roams . . . A man reading a mystery finds out too late that he is the murderer's intended victim . . . Originally published in hardcover as End of the Game and Other Stories, the fifteen stories collected here--including "Blow-Up," which was the basis for Michelangelo Antonioni's film of the same name--shows Julio Cortázar's nimble capacity to explore the shadowy realm where the everyday meets the mysterious, perhaps even the terrible.
