César

Born in 1927 in Yuma, Arizona, César Chavez lived the hard-scrabble life of a migrant worker during the Depression. Although his mother wanted him to get an education, César left school after eighth grade to work.

Entre los ensayos aquí recogidos destacan los que dedica a Schnitzler y Kafka. Canetti y la paranoia del poder, Bernhard y la sátira, y Handke y la esquizofrenia literaria redondean la selección.
