Blow-up and other stories
Cortázar, Julio1992
Book
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.
