'The year I turned ninety, I wanted to give myself the gift of a night of wild love with an adolescent virgin' Memories of My Melancholy Whores is a sensual and hypnotic journey through the mind of a man discovering love for the first time after a lifetime filled with hundreds of different women. The nights spent sleeping side-by-side with his 'Delgadina' fill his soul with an unexpected longing. He feels her presence when she is not there. The now passionate meditations of his newspaper columns are bound up in love and received by a rapturous, growing readership, and in his imagination - as real for him as memories - he sees them together as they might have been. This is a story of one man's reassessment of his life as he awakens to the transformative power of love.

Inventeur d'une vision de la réalité, d'un ton et d'une manière inédits dans la littérature sud-américaine, Manuel Puig a inauguré, avec Le plus beau tango du monde, une véritable rhétorique du cliché, des lieux communs du langage et du comportement, pour mieux percer le subconscient collectif d'un pays - l'Argentine - et d'une époque - les années 1940.

Mario, an aspiring writer, works at a radio station that broadcasts up to a half-dozen short-run soap operas.

The twelve stories here tell of Latin Americans adrift in Europe: a bereaved father leaving Rome for an audience with the Pope carries a box shaped like a cello case; an ageing streetwalker waits for death in Barcelona with a dog trained to weep at her grave; a panic-stricken husband takes his wife to a Parisian hospital to treat a cut and never sees her again. Combining terror and nostalgia, surreal comedy and the poetry of the commonplace, Strange Pilgrims is a triumph of storytelling.
