5.0 out of 5 stars El Superbo!!, April 26 2001

(REAL NAME)   
Another outstanding collection from Cortazar! He is on the money a number of times in this collection. "Graffiti" is possibly the best short story I have ever read and worth the price of the book by itself. So anonymous and yet so painfully personal. Brilliant use of second-person narration, a rarity indeed. "Glenda," the dark title story, reminds me a bit of FARGO (the movie) set in South or Central America in the 1960s. Horrifying in its lack of emotion, great detail that means nothing outside of the story, striking symbolism in the final paragraph, and one of the great first lines of any short story. Again, worth the price of admission alone. Strong supporting cast of stories, broad in scope, subject, and style. With his peculiar, often odd, plots and characters, it is difficult to read a bunch of his stories at one time--he switches gears too quickly and severely. I consider that a strength. Considering his bold ambitions, he should write many more "clunkers" than he does. When he is on, nobody does it better!
