190 Lands of Memory presents a half-dozen wonderful works by one of the greatest yet least-known South American writers of the twentieth century. Felisberto Hernandez's extraordinary stories have been always greatly prized by other writers, and the two novellas and four stories collected in Lands of Memory show why. 'Lands of Memory' and 'In the Times of Clemente Colling' are two dreamlike novellas, which are carried along like pieces of otherworldly music by odd rhapsodic memories. Curiously haunting, the four stories also included in Lands of Memory turn upon small improbable events small unpredictable, off-the-wall events which turn upside-down a first recital or a salesman's calling. These works have been long overdue for translation into English, and New Directions is pleased to have them in Esther Allen's stunning versions USA 811214834 C2O library Online catalog (BETA) F HER Lan 5209 C2O library & collabtive (Anthropology; Social Science) lands%2Bof%2Bmemory.jpg 5085 2015-01-02 09:50:52 2015-01-02 09:50:52 machine generated
