«La espuma de los días» is Boris Vian's surrealist love novel, published by Alianza Editorial in paperback (192 pages, in Spanish).
The novel interweaves two parallel love stories in a surrealist universe: that of Colin and Chloé and that of Chick and Alise. The four share follies and projects until a strange illness disturbs their happiness. The work is a metaphor for the destruction of innocence and the clash between purity and a hostile world of absurd logic.
Work originally published in 1947 as «L'Écume des jours», with translation by Luis Sastre Cid. It belongs to the El Libro de Bolsillo - Literatura collection (no. 5531).
Aimed at readers of twentieth-century classics and those seeking love stories with a marked surrealist component.
Boris Vian was a French polymath who is primarily remembered for his novels. Those published under the pseudonym Vernon Sullivan were bizarre parodies of criminal fiction, highly controversial at the time of their release owing to their unconventional outlook.
