«A salto de mata: Crónica de un fracaso precoz» is the autobiographical chronicle by Paul Auster, published by Editorial Anagrama in paperback (160 pages).
Paul Auster recalls his early years as a writer and his attempts to make his way in literature until shortly after turning thirty, when his father dies. The narrative, picaresque and moving at once, portrays a young man who survives without betraying his vocation; in parallel, it offers a lucid reflection on money, a subject that always had the final word in his family.
The work belongs to Anagrama's Compactos collection, number 391. The English original is Hand to Mouth: A Chronicle of Early Failure and the Spanish translation is by Benito Gómez Ibáñez.
A read intended for those who enjoy writers' memoirs and personal chronicles of literary life.
