Sinopse

Bringing together 11 short stories written between 1947 and 1955, Eyes of a Blue Dog is an introduction to the work of Gabriel García Márquez.

In these stories, the Colombian author presents the perspectives, motives, freedom and fantasy of the style that he would develop in works that consecrated him as one of the greatest contemporary writers.

The central theme of this collection is death. Presenting itself in various ways, it is an inevitable presence, summing up an entire life experience that defines the characters. There are stories of the dead acquiring awareness of death, in that intermediate zone between the living being—still conscious—and the dead being—who seeks to acquire consciousness, such as the man who is both "body" and "skull" in the short story "The Third Renunciation." There are also lives that are like deaths, as in the stories "The Other Rib of Death" and "Eva Is Inside Her Cat." This same death presents itself as a solution to the existential problem, as it provides a fulfillment impossible to achieve in the course of life, as in "Nabo, the Black Man Who Made the Angels Wait."

In Eyes of a Blue Dog , García Márquez recreates the magical Hispanic-American reality, inserting contemporary man into it with his existential problems, his enigmas, and his dreams. In this shifting, decentered universe, he invents a space for reality and rescues the American world from oblivion, creating an autonomous and original literature.
