Book Description
Las historias e invenciones de Félix Muriel, de Rafael Dieste, se publicaron en Buenos Aires en 1943 y, ya entonces, pudo causar cierta sorpresa el hecho de que su autor, exiliado republicano, no se refiriera en ellas a la reciente guerra de España ni a sus consecuencias. Sin embargo, de modo subrepticio, la política estructura el texto y contribuye a construir la problemática unidad del libro -un libro que muchos llamaron "obra maestra" y que José Ramón Marra-López ha situado "al margen de toda posible clasificación". No para clasificarlo, sino para entender esa "marginalidad" y los motivos de su encanto está escrito este estudio, el primero dedicado en extenso específicamente al volumen y el primero que contempla con detenimiento el manuscrito autógrafo.
