Marquez's literary idol, admired by Borges, Llosa and Neruda! Anyone who reads Cortázar will never feel bored. Every subtle experience in daily life is like a sudden improvisation, allowing you to follow your intuition and desire to reach an unexpected end point. In Cortázar's works, the world unfolds like a piece of origami, and the many adventures inside are dazzling. A nightmarish atmosphere invaded the old house, and the two people living there retreated step by step, finally escaping completely; when taking the elevator to the second floor, they suddenly felt like vomiting out a rabbit; they met a boy whose life trajectory was very similar to his own, and thus got a glimpse of the endless reincarnation... Cortázar used a jazz-like free style to dig out an intriguing extraordinary thing in ordinary situations, adding a little desire and a little fantasy, reflecting the deep and trembling intuition in his heart, and driven by it, he reached an unexpected end point.

This volume includes famous works such as "Continuation in the Park", "A Yellow Flower", "Night, Upside to the Sky", which not only continues the wild imagination and bizarre and mysterious text structure of Cortázar's early short stories, but also presents his deeper examination and compassion for human nature and destiny. It is a representative work of Cortázar in the important transition period from his aesthetic stage to the metaphysical stage. In almost every hotel he stayed in in his life, there was always a sealed door in the room. Someone had come in and out of the door. Someone knocked on it, masked it, gave it some kind of life. And in this late night, everything behind the door is awake, awake and longing in silence. The only thing that is true at this time of day and night deceives us with intolerable lies.

Five Nobel Prize winners in literature, including Marquez, Neruda, Saramago, Llosa and Mo Yan, unanimously praised it. Antonioni and Wong Kar-Wai, two generations of new wave directors, loved it. The talented and charming Cortázar: Life should be a miracle day after day. Stunning imagination shines in front of readers through words, and each short story is comparable to a movie. The Chinese version of the original novel of the Palme d'Or award-winning film "Blow Up" is released // The Chinese version of the short story "Secret Weapon" (collected in "Southern Highway") is released. What if everything was unique? What if everything points to one place in the end?

"We can't escape," she said, "We are already huddled together down there, like a herd of wild beasts." Sonia screamed, trying to break away from the burning arms that held her tightly in her sleep. Her screams were mixed with Roland's, who was struggling in vain to get up, choked by thick black smoke. They shouted for help, but their voices grew fainter, when the fire engines arrived at full speed through the streets filled with curious onlookers. "The tenth floor," the captain said, "it's not easy to save. There's still a north wind. Come up."

The literary idol of Marquez, the author of "One Hundred Years of Solitude", is unanimously praised by Neruda, Saramago, Llosa, Mo Yan and other Nobel Prize winners for literature! A new and bizarre literary adventure. Who's reading, has this never happened to you? It starts from a dream and appears again and again in many dreams, but it is not just a dream; the subway is a place suitable for games, eyes meet in the car window, hands meet on the handrails, players silently fight against the power that controls the game; when the unchanging life is broken, unexpectedly in the image of a white horse in the night Arrival... Cortázar takes his exploration of genre and language to a new level, about love, death, childhood, and the intersection of fantasy and reality. He captures the subtle moments when reality deviates due to fear or expectation, constructs a vast world on the other side of reality, and invites readers to join in a strange and new literary adventure.

Stunning imagination shines in front of readers through words, and each short story is comparable to a movie. Five Nobel Prize winners in literature, including Marquez, Neruda and Mo Yan, unanimously praised it. Antonioni and Wong Kar-Wai are beloved by two generations of new wave directors. The set includes four classic short stories: "We Love Glenda So Much", "Southern Highway", "The Occupied House" and "There's Someone Walking Around". Here, the line between reality and illusion is blurred, and human nature and beastiality are in constant struggle. Monsters and beasts invade daily life through nightmares, and fantasy objects are cast a shadow of fear. We don't have to understand it, but we will inevitably be pulled into this whirlpool of huge magic, entangled and torn, extremely gorgeous and wonderful, just like the unconfirmed truth in life, unknown, but with a more fatal attraction.
