«Desencuentros» is the short story collection by Edmundo Paz Soldán, published by Páginas de Espuma in paperback, in Spanish.
The volume brings together texts where irony and black humor combine with a skeptical eye; tenderness crosses paths with terror in situations that point to the misunderstandings between people. The cover, with signs toward different cities, evokes the distance that runs through these stories.
Published in 2004.
For readers of contemporary fiction who appreciate black humor, irony, and a disquieting edge.
José Edmundo Paz-Soldán Ávila is a Bolivian writer. His work is a prominent example of the Latin American literary movement known as McOndo, in which the magical realism of previous Latin American authors is supplanted by modern realism, often with a technological focus. His work has won several awards. He has lived in the United States since 1991, and has taught literature at Cornell University since 1997.
