The Bear's Discourse

Julio Cortázar



Emilio Urberuaga (illustrations)

«And in long summertime I swim at night in the starpecked cistern, I wash my face first with one paw then with the other then with both together, and this causes me a great happiness.» J. Cortázar

This is the story of a bear that lives in the plumbing of a building and who discovers the strange and lonely lives of human beings. This amazing story is a fine example of the literature of the great Julio Cortázar. The illustrations by Emilio Urberuaga light up the wanderings of the
main character.
