«Cuentos escritos a máquina» is a collection of short stories by Gianni Rodari, published by Editorial Alfaguara in paperback (272 pages, in Spanish).
The work brings together twenty-six stories with absurd characters and unexpected situations: a postman who lifts enormous weights, a cowboy who uses a piano as a weapon, or the mystery surrounding a classic novel. With humor and irony, Rodari turns the everyday into fantasies that invite readers to view reality with imagination.
Number 16 in the Alfaguara Juvenil collection, with illustrations by Fuencisla del Amo. Original title: Novelle fatte a macchina.
A work of children's and young adult literature intended for both young readers and adults who appreciate Rodari's humor and fantasy.
Giovanni Francesco "Gianni" Rodari was an Italian writer and journalist, most famous for his works of children's literature, notably Il romanzo di Cipollino. For his lasting contribution as a children's author, he received the biennial Hans Christian Andersen Medal in 1970. He is considered Italy's most important 20th-century children's author, and his books have been translated into many languages, though few have been published in English.
