by Juan Jos? Arreola (Author)

"Su campo de acci?n es el ser humano, ya que su aproximaci?n al mundo de los animales se cobija en Jonathan Swift y las bestias sugieren conductas de hombres; sin embargo, las descripciones son portentosas y no s?lo incluyen los s?mbolos naturales sino visi?n po?tica y conocimiento intuitivo." Jos? Agust?n

Existen pocos libros en la literatura mexicana con la mordacidad y la elocuencia de Bestiario. En cada una de sus vi?etas de efecto lapidario, en los trazos de su estilo, en los vuelos de su ingenio y en la oportuna agudeza de su erudici?n aparece el narrador impecable que fue Juan Jos? Arreola (1918-2001). Sus p?ginas conjugan su pasi?n por el ensayo breve y el poema en prosa. Sus im?genes no son menos evocadoras que las del c?lebre Manual de zoolog?a fant?stica de Jorge Luis Borges, ni menos naturalistas que los fabulosos inventarios que se han creado en torno al reino animal.

ENGLISH DESCRIPTION

"His field of action is the human being, as his approach to the world of animals is sheltered in Jonathan Swift and the beasts suggest human behaviors; however, the descriptions are magnificent and not only include natural symbols but also poetic vision and intuitive knowledge." Jos? Agust?n

There are few books in Mexican literature with the mordacity and eloquence of Bestiario. In each of its lapidary effect vignettes, in the strokes of its style, in the flights of its wit, and in the timely sharpness of its erudition, the impeccable narrator that was Juan Jos? Arreola (1918-2001) appears. His pages combine his passion for the brief essay and the prose poem. His images are no less evocative than those of the famous Manual de zoolog?a fant?stica by Jorge Luis Borges, nor less naturalistic than the fabulous inventories that have been created around the animal kingdom.
