«El hombre que atravesaba las paredes» is the selected short-story collection by Marcel Aymé, published by Argos-Vergara in hardcover (100 pages, in Spanish).
The volume brings together short narratives in which the extraordinary slips into everyday life: the character of the title story discovers he can walk through walls, and the situation becomes an ironic game about the absurd. With black humor and a critical eye, Aymé portrays loneliness, lack of communication and social hypocrisy.
1983 edition in Spanish, translated by Basilio Losada, in the Libros DB collection (no. 52). The French original, «Le passe-muraille», appeared in 1943.
For readers of classic short stories and magical realism who appreciate irony, black humor and absurd situations.
Marcel Aymé was a French novelist and playwright, who also wrote screenplays and works for children.
