Once Upon Argentina

Praise for Andrés Neuman:

“It is impossible to classify Andrés Neuman: each of his books is a new language adventure, guided by the intelligence and the pleasure of words. He never ceases to surprise us and is, doubtlessly, one of the most daring writers in Latin American literature, willing to change, challenge and explore, always with a unique elegance.”–Mariana Enriquez, author of Things We Lost in the Fire

“One of the things I love about Andrés Neuman’s work is how he restores writing as the most powerful source of knowledge. Fracture, this dazzling and devastating novel, is a terrific demonstration of that.”–Alejandro Zambra, author of Ways of Going Home

“Traversing languages and cultures, decades and generations, Fracture unites its many fragments to form a powerful and redemptive vision of a single, and unbroken, human life. A searching, humane, and vital novel.“―Eleanor Catton, author of The Luminaries

Andres Neuman (1977) was selected as one of Granta’s Best of Young Spanish-Language Novelists and was included on the Bogot-39 list. He is the author of numerous novels, short stories, poems, aphorisms, and travel books, including Traveler of the Century, Talking to Ourselves, The Things We Don’t Do, Sensitive Anatomy, and Fracture.
