One of Latin America's most influential living writers
For fans of Borges, Calvino and Proust
Hugely prolific author - each novel is a piece in the puzzle of
Aira's grand writing project
Fifth of six collectible series of Aira novels from And Other
Stories
Cesar Aira is the author of around 80 books. The Argentinian's writing is considered to be among the most important and influential in Latin America today, marked by extreme eccentricity and innovation, and a playful spirit. He is without a doubt the true heir to Jorge Luis Borges' literature of ideas.
Praise for Cesar Aira`One of the Spanish language's greatest writers . . . Birthday is wise in its inexactitude.' El Cultural ----`Aira's writing . . . combines brevity with so many possible meanings.' Arifa Akbar, Financial Times ---- `Aira’s novels are concerned with the phenomenology of contemporary history, which can feel both immovably stable and cartoonishly slippery- a frenzy of nonsensical inversions, one after another, like a seemingly never-ending series of little novels.’Steven Zultanksi, Frieze
