“Su campo de acción es el ser humano, ya que su aproximación al mundo de los animales se cobija en Jonathan Swift y las bestias sugieren conductas de hombres; sin embargo, las descripciones son portentosas y no sólo incluyen los símbolos naturales sino visión poética y conocimiento intuitivo.”
José Agustín
Existen pocos libros en la literatura mexicana con la mordacidad y la elocuencia de
Bestiario.
En cada una de sus viñetas de efecto lapidario, en los trazos de su estilo, en los vuelos de su ingenio y en la oportuna agudeza de su erudición aparece el narrador impecable que fue Juan José Arreola (1918-2001). Sus páginas conjugan su pasión por el ensayo breve y el poema en prosa.
Sus imágenes no son menos evocadoras
que las del célebre Manual de zoología fantástica de Jorge Luis Borges, ni menos naturalistas que los fabulosos inventarios que se han creado en torno al reino animal.
ENGLISH DESCRIPTION
“His field of action is the human being, as his approach to the world of animals is sheltered in Jonathan Swift and the beasts suggest human behaviors; however, the descriptions are magnificent and not only include natural symbols but also poetic vision and intuitive knowledge.”
There are few books in Mexican literature with the mordacity and eloquence of
In each of its lapidary effect vignettes, in the strokes of its style, in the flights of its wit, and in the timely sharpness of its erudition, the impeccable narrator that was Juan José Arreola (1918-2001) appears. His pages combine his passion for the brief essay and the prose poem.
His images
are no less evocative
than those of the famous Manual de zoología fantástica by Jorge Luis Borges, nor less naturalistic than the fabulous inventories that have been created around the animal kingdom.
