All Fires Return to One

Todos los fuegos el fuego

Douban

NeoDB

Within a limited and cramped space, his consciousness and imagination are pushed to their limits. On midnight highways, inside airplane cabins, in icy hospital wards, beneath glass-domed skies... Cortázar's pen creates strangely twisted, resilient, and enduring souls who struggle to escape their predetermined fate, even as the flames envelop them irresistibly.

This book is a collection of Julio Cortázar's short stories, including "Southern Highway," "The Patient's Health," "The Rendezvous," "Miss Cora," "Island at Noon," "Instructions to John Howell," "All Fires Become One," and "Another Sky." The novels unfold amidst the details of everyday life, and as the author often does, the plot gradually reveals the out-of-control and absurd aspects, vividly and detachedly capturing the incredible and complex emotions of modern people in social life.
