Un legado invaluable que nos invita a seguir leyendo, escribiendo y soñando. Una niña a quien un castigo del cielo convierte en tortuga y termina siendo la triste atracción de una feria, un parque de diversiones con elefantes que dan a luz a saltimbanquis, una cautiva emparedada en un monasterio, un sádico e infame revolucionario a quien la Historia relega al olvido… Las fronteras entre lo aparente y lo veraz se desdibujan en los catorce relatos de este libro que son, a su vez, fisuras hacia realidades donde imperan lo singular y lo inesperado. En El viento distante —antología de cuentos que apareció en 1963, pero que el autor siguió trabajando durante décadas—, José Emilio Pacheco se adentra al delirio de la existencia y su inevitable colisión con la realidad que nos circunda. ENGLISH DESCRIPTION An invaluable legacy that invites us to keep reading, writing, and dreaming. A girl turned into a turtle by a heavenly punishment, becoming the sad attraction of a fair; an amusement park with elephants giving birth to acrobats; a captive walled up in a monastery; a sadistic and infamous revolutionary whom history consigns to oblivion... The boundaries between the apparent and the true blur in the fourteen stories of this book , which are, in turn, fissures into realities where the singular and the unexpected reign. In  El viento distante —an anthology of stories that first appeared in 1963 but which the author continued to work on for decades—José Emilio Pacheco delves into the delirium of existence and its inevitable collision with the reality that surrounds us.
