«La espuma de los días» is the surrealist novel by Boris Vian, published by Seix Barral in paperback (219 pages, in Spanish).
The novel follows Colin, a wealthy young man, and his marriage to Chloé, who falls ill when a water lily grows in her lung. With a surrealist and poetic style, Vian interweaves two love stories and shows how the irruption of reality ends the dreams and innocence of the protagonists.
Translation by Pablo Melero; original title: L'écume des jours. Belongs to the Literatura Contemporánea collection from Seix Barral.
A read for those who enjoy tragic love stories, surrealism, and prose full of imagination and humor.
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.
