by Julio Cortazar (Author)

Segundo de los libros-almanaques de Julio Cortázar, se publicó por primera vez en México en 1969 y fue diseñado por Julio Silva. Cortázar se respondía a sí mismo en una autoentrevista sobre el contenido: "... en Último round hay un 'Homenaje a Alain Resnais' que se puede leer permutatoriamente, lo que modifica cada vez el sentido al mismo tiempo que conserva el clima inicial de 'L'année dernière à Marienbad'. Hay también una despedida a Teodoro W. Adorno, que se ha convertido al catolicismo; hay varios cuentos, largos y cortos, hay una especie de diario de un día de vida en mi aldea provenzal de Saignon. Hay una defensa de Salvador Dalí ( oh!); hay un examen general de los problemas del erotismo en la expresión literaria latinoamericana; hay un ensayo sobre el cuento breve y sus alrededores, cuestión que me sigue preocupando y sobre la cual no se ha escrito gran cosa. Te bastan esos botones, o necesitás todo el costurero?"

This second of Julio Cortázar's almanac-books was first published in Mexico in 1969 and designed by Julio Silva. In an interview with himself, Cortázar described the contents: "In Último round there is a 'Homage to Alain Resnais' which can be read in a permutational fashion, in such a way that its meaning changes even as the initial atmosphere of L'année dernière à Marienbad is preserved. There is also a farewell to Theodor W. Adorno, who has converted to Catholicism; there are several stories, long and short; and there is a sort of diary of a day in my life in the Provençal village of Saignon. There is a defense of Salvador Dalí (ah!); there is a general analysis of the problem of eroticism in Latin American literature; there is an essay on the short story and its surroundings, a subject which continues to preoccupy me and about which not much has been written. Are these samples enough, or do you want the whole sewing basket?"
